About Mr Aveek Mitra

Personal Profile

Mr Aveek Mitra is a highly respected Consultant Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgeon with specialist expertise in shoulder and elbow surgery, upper limb reconstruction, and the management of complex traumatic and degenerative musculoskeletal conditions. Renowned for his patient-centred approach, he is committed to delivering the highest standards of care, helping patients regain movement, restore function, and return to the activities that matter most to them.

With extensive experience treating a broad range of orthopaedic conditions, Mr Mitra provides expert assessment and treatment for sports injuries, traumatic fractures, tendon disorders, nerve compression syndromes, joint instability, and advanced arthritis affecting the upper limb. He recognises that every patient has unique needs and goals, and therefore develops personalised treatment plans tailored to their lifestyle, occupation, sporting activities, and long-term health objectives. His approach emphasises shared decision-making, ensuring patients are fully informed and actively involved throughout every stage of their treatment journey.

Mr Mitra is experienced in both non-surgical and surgical management strategies, offering evidence-based care designed to optimise recovery and achieve the best possible outcomes. His specialist practice includes the treatment of rotator cuff injuries, shoulder dislocations, frozen shoulder, tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, tendon ruptures, nerve entrapment conditions, and complex fractures of both the upper and lower limbs. He also treats patients with chronic pain, joint degeneration, and functional limitations resulting from arthritis and previous injuries.

As a specialist shoulder and elbow surgeon, Mr Mitra performs a wide range of advanced procedures using the latest surgical techniques. These include minimally invasive arthroscopic (keyhole) surgery for the diagnosis and treatment of shoulder and elbow conditions, as well as complex reconstructive procedures such as ligament reconstruction, tendon repair, reverse shoulder replacement, total shoulder replacement, and elbow joint restoration. His commitment to innovation and evidence-based practice enables him to offer patients the most appropriate and effective treatments available.

Mr Mitra has undertaken extensive postgraduate training at some of the UK's leading institutions. He was awarded Membership of the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh (MRCS) in 2009, reflecting his early dedication to surgical excellence. In 2012, he completed a Master of Science (MSc) in Surgical Technology at Imperial College London, further developing his expertise in advanced surgical techniques and healthcare innovation. He subsequently achieved Fellowship of the Royal College of Surgeons of England (FRCS Trauma & Orthopaedics) in 2018, marking the completion of his specialist orthopaedic training.

To further refine his expertise, Mr Mitra completed advanced fellowship training in shoulder and elbow surgery and trauma reconstruction, gaining specialist experience in managing complex cases and revision procedures. He remains actively involved in continuing professional development and keeps abreast of the latest advances in orthopaedic surgery to ensure his patients benefit from modern, evidence-based care.

Mr Mitra is a proud member of several leading professional organisations, including the British Elbow and Shoulder Society (BESS), the British Indian Orthopaedic Association (BIOA), and Motorsport UK. Through these affiliations, he contributes to the advancement of orthopaedic practice while maintaining the highest standards of clinical excellence, patient safety, and professional integrity.
