Mr Hemang Mehta

I am a Consultant Shoulder and Upper Limb Surgeon practicing at Spire Cardiff Hospital. I specialise in keyhole (arthroscopic surgery) and minimally invasive surgery of shoulder and elbow, as well as general orthopaedics, shoulder replacements, upper limb surgery and trauma. I bring broad experience and expertise in orthopaedic surgery to my private orthopaedic practice at Spire Cardiff Hospital.

My special interests include shoulder dislocations, frozen shoulder, arthritis, rotator cuff tears and sports injuries of the shoulder. I have an extensive shoulder surgery practice treating sports injuries of the shoulder, and arthritis. My shoulder surgery and upper limb surgery use advanced arthroscopic methods I developed during clinical visits to leading centres in the UK and Europe, and on my fellowship in Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge and New York University (NYU) Hospital, New York, USA.

My specialist elbow practice includes arthroscopic joint release surgery and debridement of arthritic joints, replacement of radial head and complex elbow trauma. I also carry out keyhole surgery of knee and knee replacements.

I am a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon at Aneurin Bevan Health Board, working at Nevill Hall Hospital Abergavenny and St Woolos Hospital Newport in South Wales. I am also a General and Upper limb Surgeon at Glan Usk Suites in Abergavenny.

I am a member of British Shoulder and Elbow Society and American Association of Orthopaedic Surgeons. In addition to my surgical qualifications, I am actively engaged in teaching medical students and junior surgeons, nationally and internationally. I am a faculty member for AO International Trauma courses and a Royal College of Surgeons trainer for Basic Orthopaedic skills courses.

I have published several papers in international journals and keep my knowledge up to date by attending courses and conferences throughout the world.
