Dr Haytham Salem

Sports & MSK Medicine Consultant

FFSEM (Ir), DFSEM (UK), MRCGP

I am a British Musculoskeletal Medicine Consultant and a Sports Doctor, initially trained as an Orthopedic surgeon before transitioning to sports and musculoskeletal medicine. I have over 15 years of experience in elite athletes' care including eight years in the English Premier League, having worked with Everton FC and Burnley FC, and have collaborated with esteemed managers including Carlo Ancelotti and Vincent Kompany.

My expertise in MSK ultrasonography is reinforced by attaining a Post-Graduate Certificate in MSK U/S from Brunel University in London and I am currently performing an average of 1,500 ultrasound guided injections into joints and soft tissues on an annual basis.

I bring extensive expertise to Spire in the holistic management of joint pains and sports injuries through minimally invasive ultrasound-guided interventions. I still maintain my private clinics in London, Manchester and Dubai, Arthregen Clinic; where I continue to care for numerous patients within the UK market and beyond.

I am a Fellow of the Faculty of Sports and Exercise Medicine in Ireland, hold a post-graduate Diploma in Musculoskeletal Medicine from Faculty of Sports and Exercise Medicine in the UK and a post-graduate Diploma in Sports and Exercise Medicine from the renowned International Olympic Committee in Switzerland. I am one of the few consultants in the UK who have attained a post graduate MSc in Musculoskeletal medicine from UCLAN in UK.

I am also a clinical supervisor and educator and supported the development of junior family and sports medicine doctors in London and Liverpool. I also supervised the development of lots of medical personnel in English football.
