About Mr Shakir Hussain

Personal Profile

Mr Shakir Hussain is a leading Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon specialising exclusively in hip replacement, knee replacement, hip resurfacing, revision hip and knee arthroplasty, robotic-assisted joint replacement, and complex lower limb reconstruction. Recognised by the National Consultant Information Programme (NCIP) as one of the UK's highest-volume arthroplasty surgeons, he has built a reputation for delivering outstanding patient outcomes across the full spectrum of primary, revision and complex hip and knee surgery.

Mr Hussain is particularly recognised for his expertise in hip resurfacing arthroplasty, making him a sought-after referral specialist for young and active patients looking to maintain an active lifestyle while preserving bone and future treatment options. He trained under Mr Ronan Treacy, co-designer of the Birmingham Hip Resurfacing (BHR) implant and one of the pioneers of modern hip resurfacing surgery. Mr Hussain subsequently succeeded Mr Treacy's practice and continues this specialist tradition, offering one of the UK's leading hip resurfacing services.

Following specialist orthopaedic training on the Birmingham Orthopaedic Training Programme, Mr Hussain completed advanced lower limb arthroplasty fellowships at leading UK centres, including the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital, Nottingham and North Bristol NHS Trust. He was awarded the prestigious British Hip Society Travelling Fellowship to ENDO-Klinik Hamburg, Germany, one of the world's foremost centres for complex revision joint replacement surgery and prosthetic joint infection management.

Mr Hussain routinely manages highly complex cases, including failed hip and knee replacements, severe bone loss, prosthetic joint infection and periprosthetic fractures. By combining advanced surgical techniques, modern implant technology and robotic-assisted surgery, he aims to help patients regain mobility, relieve pain and return to the activities they enjoy.

Patient experience is central to Mr Hussain's practice. He has received the Doctify Outstanding Patient Experience Award for three consecutive years, 2024, 2025 and 2026, reflecting consistently exceptional patient feedback, outstanding satisfaction scores and a commitment to personalised care.

Alongside his clinical practice, Mr Hussain serves as Clinical Service Lead (CSL) for the Outpatient Department and Clinical Lead for the Medical Device Advisory Group (MDAG) at the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital. These leadership roles reflect his commitment to clinical excellence, patient safety, innovation and continuous service improvement.

Mr Hussain remains actively involved in research, education and the advancement of modern arthroplasty techniques. He has published scientific articles in peer-reviewed journals, contributed to textbook chapters on hip replacement surgery and participated in research evaluating robotic-assisted joint replacement. He regularly teaches orthopaedic trainees and national training courses.
