Mr John Machin

John is a Consultant Hip and Knee Surgeon at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital who has a high-volume specialist practice focusing on primary and revision hip and knee surgery, arthroscopic knee surgery and lower limb trauma. John’s patient-centred approach allows him to tailor each patient’s care to their specific needs to ensure they receive the best evidence-based treatment. John has experience in both computer navigation and robotic surgery. He also offers both posterior and direct anterior approaches to the hip, which provide a muscle-sparing approach that leads to reduced scar tissue, faster recover and less post-operative pain.
