About
Dr Amit Verma is a consultant in sports and exercise medicine, providing expert care to individuals at all activity levels — from elite athletes to the general public. He specialises in diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal (MSK) and sports injuries, including both acute trauma and chronic overuse conditions.
Dr Verma focuses on early diagnosis and conservative treatment, using personalised rehabilitation plans to help patients recover safely and efficiently. He integrates advanced imaging techniques, including ultrasound and MRI, to guide precise treatments such as shockwave therapy and image-guided injections (steroid, hyaluronic acid, and PRP).
His approach is holistic, addressing key lifestyle factors that influence recovery and performance — including diet, cardiovascular fitness, strength, endurance, and hormonal or genetic influences.
In his role as Pathway Lead Doctor at The Football Association, Dr Verma supports all England men's teams at the National Football Centre, St George’s Park. His previous roles include positions with Liverpool FC, Burnley FC, and the Huddersfield Giants. Since 2022, he has served as First Team Doctor at Huddersfield Town AFC.
He has also worked at major international sporting events such as the 2022 Commonwealth Games, British Athletics competitions, international Taekwondo, and with the British Cycling Team ahead of the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.
Dr Verma is a Member of the Royal College of Physicians and a Fellow of the Faculty of Sport and Exercise Medicine, with a strong commitment to advancing MSK care through research, collaboration, and continuous professional development.
He has extensive experience managing injuries to muscles, tendons, ligaments, and joints, including complex cases such as tendinopathy, osteoarthritis, and meniscal injuries. He also treats unexplained symptoms related to exercise — such as fatigue, underperformance, and breathing difficulties — as well as sport-specific conditions like concussion.
