A bone-preserving alternative to total hip replacement, in ceramic or metal-on-metal, designed to let you return to the sport, work and life you love.
Told you need a hip replacement? For many active patients there is an alternative. Whether you are a runner, cyclist, climber or simply want to remain on your feet without compromise, hip resurfacing is a bone-preserving alternative to total hip replacement — one of the few procedures designed for people who refuse to slow down.
This practice covers the full scope of hip surgery, from primary hip replacement through complex hip revision surgery. Hip resurfacing is the particular area of high-volume special interest, with a choice of ceramic-on-ceramic (ReCerf, H1) or metal-on-metal (Adept) bearings in carefully selected patients.
Meet the SurgeonKeep your own bone, keep your own biomechanics. Because the femoral head is reshaped and capped rather than removed, a resurfaced hip behaves more like a natural one — stable, strong and ready for high-impact activity, with a lower risk of dislocation than a total hip replacement.
The femoral head is capped rather than removed, conserving native bone for the future.
The larger bearing and natural anatomy support a return to running, cycling and other high-demand activity.
Well-selected patients experience excellent long-term survivorship: performance that endures.
Patients travel to us from across the UK, drawn by an unwavering focus on resurfacing technique, implant selection and long-term outcomes.
Every patient is assessed individually. We will tell you honestly whether resurfacing is right for you. If it is not, we will explain why and what the better option would be.
