Mr Gunasekaran Kumar

I am a Consultant in Trauma and Orthopaedic surgery at Liverpool University Hospitals Foundation Trust, working at Aintree Hospital and Broadgreen Hospital. I am from India, gained primary medical qualification of MBBS from Madras Medical College. I underwent post-graduate training in Trauma and Orthopaedics at Kilpauk Medical College, Madras. After a couple of years of practice in Madras, India, I came over to UK to pursue further training. I completed higher surgical training as a Specialist Registrar in London Deanery and Mersey Deanery and gained FRCS (Tr & Orth). Following this I got into Specialist Register for Trauma and Orthopaedics. As part of my trauma interest, via AO Trauma I had training in Pelvic and Acetabular surgery in Harborview Medical Center, Seattle under the care of Prof Rout. On returning from this training, I took up the post of Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon dealing with complex trauma including pelvic and acetabular fracture surgery, hip and knee arthroplasty.

 I specialise in primary and revision total hip replacements, primary knee replacements, knee arthroscopy.  As part of re-organising my practice, to focus on primary hip and knee replacement, I do not undertake revision hip replacements or management of bony metastatic tumours.
