Private Knee & Hip Surgery at The Lister Hospital, Chelsea
The Lister Hospital on Chelsea Bridge Road is one of Dr Arj Imbuldeniya's principal surgical venues. It is where many of his patients from central and west London have their knee or hip operation once the right non-surgical options have been considered, or sooner when surgery is clearly the best first step. Biology-first. Surgery-last. When surgery is the right step, it is done precisely, at the right time, in the right hands.
What happens at The Lister Hospital?
The Lister is a dedicated surgical venue in the practice. Your consultation, imaging and treatment planning usually take place at one of Dr Arj's clinics in Chiswick, Kensington or Mayfair, and if an operation is the right next step for you, The Lister is one of the hospitals where it is carried out. Operating lists run on Mondays, and you are admitted, operated on and looked after by a team Dr Arj has worked with for years, from anaesthetists to ward nurses and physiotherapists.
Knee and hip surgery at The Lister Hospital
Dr Arj performs a full range of knee and hip surgery at The Lister, including knee arthroscopy, meniscus and cartilage surgery, ACL reconstruction, including revision ACL and female specific fixation techniques, and knee and hip replacement. Every operation is planned around you as an individual, your anatomy, your goals and your life, not just your scan. Where a robotic assisted or muscle sparing technique is the right choice for you, Dr Arj will confirm the most appropriate hospital for that procedure at your consultation.
Over the last two years, 8 in 10 patients he saw did not go on to surgery. That selectivity is exactly why patients who do need an operation can be confident it is the right one, done for the right reasons.
What is recovery like?
Most keyhole procedures are day case surgery, so you are home the same day. Joint replacement patients are usually home the following day, walking with support and following a clear, personalised rehabilitation plan. Dr Arj reviews every surgical patient himself at around two weeks, and your recovery is guided through the practice rather than handed off.

Start with your knee's biological age
If you are unsure where your knee sits on this spectrum, here is the practical place to start. The Knee Age quiz takes sixty seconds, scores the factors that drive knee ageing, and tells you your knee's biological age against the age on your passport. It costs nothing, and it turns a vague worry into something you can act on.
