We provide specialist orthopaedic care at King’s Elective Orthopaedic Centre, Orpington Hospital.

Our purpose-built centre has state-of-the-art operating theatres and a dedicated team of surgeons, anaesthetists, theatre and ward nurses, and therapists, providing the very best of care.

We carry out inpatient and day surgery. Outpatient clinics are held at Orpington, Princess Royal University, and King’s College hospitals.

We offer a full range of surgical treatment for a variety of conditions, including:

• joint replacement
• revision joint replacement
• keyhole (arthroscopic) knee, ankle and shoulder surgery
• ligament and tendon repair

Our team aims to get you up and moving, ready to go home as soon as possible after surgery. So we build a care package around you, based on your needs, including physiotherapists and occupational therapists to support your recovery, from pre-assessment to post-operative care.

• Our Guide to King’s Elective Orthopaedic Centre at Orpington (video) explains what happens when you come in for surgery.
• Our Guide to anaesthesia used during joint replacement (video) explains the types of anaesthestic you may be offered, their benefits and risks, and what to expect before, during, and after your operation.
