How We Help

Preventative Care

Soft Tissue Surgery

Not every knee problem needs surgery straight away. Mr Walsh offers a full range of non-operative treatments, including hyaluronic acid injections, to ease pain and delay the need for joint replacement — particularly valuable for younger patients still active at work or in sport. As a Bioventus key opinion leader, he stays close to the l

Soft Tissue Surgery

Alongside joint replacement, Mr Walsh treats soft tissue knee injuries — ligament, meniscus, and cartilage problems — using targeted surgical techniques aimed at preserving your own joint where possible. This is often the first step for younger patients or sports-related injuries, before arthritis has progressed to the point where replacement is the right option.

Joint replacement

Revision Knee Surgery

Mr Walsh offers the full spectrum of joint replacement: total, partial, and uncemented knee replacements, tailored to your anatomy and activity level rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. He's especially experienced with VELYS™ robotic-assisted total and partial replacements, which allow for more precise, personalised implant positioning.

Revision Knee Surgery

When a previous knee replacement develops complications — instability, wear, or infection — Mr Walsh runs a dedicated revision practice using the Attune revision implant system. Revision surgery is more complex than a first replacement, and this is a specific area of his caseload rather than a side interest.

Day Case Knee Surgery

Mr Walsh has performed over 1000 knee replacements as day cases — going home the same day rather than staying overnight. This approach, which he helped pioneer and co-authored into national NHS GIRFT guidance, means a faster return home and, for suitable patients, a smoother recovery. Read more in the linked Daily Mail coverage of the technique.
