Mr Chris Paliobeis

My elective practice is mainly devoted to the treatment of problems of the hip and knee joint. My specialisation lies in the surgical treatment of young patients with hip disorders and I am able to offer an effective surgical option to help such individuals return to full activity.

I also perform hip and knee surgery using the Mako robotic arm which helps to improve the precision of hip and knee replacement surgeries.

After graduating from Medical School, I completed my Surgical and Orthopaedic training in Athens, Greece. Following completion of specialist training, I moved to the UK where I undertook several distinguished Fellowships in: Trauma (AO Foundation) in Leeds, Musculoskeletal Oncology at the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital in Birmingham, Knee Surgery at York Hospital, Hip Surgery / Hip Arthroscopy at the Richard Villar Practice in London.

Following my Fellowships, I held the post of Locum Consultant in Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge and at the Royal Berkshire Hospital in Reading, before being appointed as a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon at the Hereford County Hospital in 2012.

I maintain a keen interest in teaching and am on the faculty for a renowned international course which trains surgeons on surgical techniques in hip arthroscopy. My research interests have led to peer-reviewed publications, predominantly on hip surgery. I review regularly for The Bone and Joint Journal (formerly known as the "Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery (BR)").
