Knee and Hip Treatments
Knee and Hip Surgeon in Chiswick
Dr Arj Imbuldeniya is a consultant orthopaedic knee and hip surgeon who holds clinics on Chiswick High Road and looks after patients across Chiswick, Hammersmith, Barnes, Ealing and Brentford. He treats knee and hip arthritis, cartilage, meniscus and ligament injuries, and performs robotic knee and muscle-sparing hip replacement when it is genuinely needed. His approach is biology first and surgery last, the right things in the right order, with surgery kept as a precise and well-timed option rather than the first move.
The two patients I see most in Chiswick
Most people who come to see me in Chiswick arrive holding one of two fears. Either they have been told nothing can be done yet, come back when it is bad enough for a replacement, and they are quietly getting worse while they wait. Or they have been told they need surgery, and something about how quickly that answer arrived has unsettled them. Both of those patients are often in the wrong place at the wrong time, and both of those mistakes cost knees and hips that could have been saved.
Why it matters that I am a surgeon
I operate at high volume, so when an operation is genuinely the right answer I can offer it, and offer it well, with modern, minimally invasive, robotic and muscle-sparing techniques. But because I operate, I also know exactly how many of the people in front of me do not need to. A physiotherapist advising you to avoid surgery is doing their job. A surgeon telling you the same thing is giving you something rarer, an honest answer against his own interest.
Biology first, surgery last
This is the whole idea behind how I work. We do not stack one treatment on top of another and hope. We do the right things in the right order, starting with everything that helps the joint settle and recover on its own, and we keep surgery in reserve as the precise, well-timed tool it is meant to be, not the first thing anyone reaches for.
At a Glance
A plan built around you, not your scan
No two patients with the same scan get the same plan. Two people with the same worn knee, the same torn meniscus or the same arthritic hip will leave my clinic with different plans, because they are different people, with different weight to carry, different work, children to lift, sleep they are not getting, and different lives to fit a recovery around. I build the plan around the person, not the picture, and I set goals that are realistic for the life you actually lead. I live those same constraints myself, so the plans I write are for real weeks, not ideal ones.
The knee and hip conditions I treat
I look after the full range of knee and hip problems: osteoarthritis of the knee and hip, cartilage and meniscus injuries, ligament injuries including ACL reconstruction, and, when it is truly needed, robotic knee resurfacing and replacement and muscle-sparing anterior hip replacement. Where a joint can be helped without surgery, we use targeted injections and a structured programme to buy it good years. Where it cannot, you want a surgeon who does this every week, and that is what you get.
Serving Chiswick and west London
My Chiswick clinic looks after patients from across this part of west London, from Chiswick and Hammersmith to Barnes, Ealing and Brentford. If your knee or hip is starting to change what you do, a morning that begins stiff, a walk cut short, a run you have quietly given up, that is the moment to have it assessed properly rather than waiting for it to become an emergency.
I also hold clinics in Brentford and Syon and in Kensington and Chelsea.
Book an assessment
You can book an assessment at ortholongevity.co.uk, or speak to Kelly and Louise on 0207 859 4016 or at admin@ortholongevity.co.uk. If you would rather start by understanding where your knee stands, the free Knee Age check at kneeage.com is a good first step.
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.
