Specialist care for sports knee injuries, ACL and ligament reconstruction, meniscal and cartilage surgery, knee preservation, and partial and total knee replacement.
I have been a consultant in Bristol since 2009. I see private patients at Spire Bristol Hospital and Nuffield Health Bristol Hospital, and hold NHS appointments at the Bristol Royal Infirmary, the Avon Orthopaedic Centre at Southmead Hospital and Bristol Royal Hospital for Children.
A knee problem can affect far more than walking. It may stop you working, training, competing or simply doing the things that matter to you. My first priority is an accurate diagnosis and understanding your goals. I will explain the options clearly, including non-operative treatment, and recommend surgery only when it is likely to offer a real benefit.
My practice focuses on reconstructive and sports knee surgery, including ACL and other ligament injuries, meniscal preservation, cartilage and osteochondral problems, and knee injuries in children and adolescents. I also treat knee arthritis with preservation procedures, osteotomy, and partial or total knee replacement where appropriate.

What Hywel's Patients Say
I work closely with a group of other knee surgeons based in Bristol. We are all specialist knee surgeons working within the NHS at The BRI and Southmead hospitals and Privately as a group.
Together we regularly review our own and each other’s practices so the we can ensure we reach the highest standards. At weekly meetings we discuss difficult cases and review our surgical results. We also hold regular research meetings to help direct research to improve patient care.
In the private sector if one of us is away we cover each other’s patients so if an emergency or problem should emerge it can be seen at any point by a constant member of the team.
