About

Mr Michael Grant is an accomplished Consultant Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgeon with specialist expertise in knee surgery, sports injury management, joint preservation, and advanced cartilage repair techniques. He is dedicated to helping patients return to pain‑free movement and regain confidence in their physical performance, whether recovering from injury, managing arthritis, or seeking to maintain an active lifestyle.


Internationally trained knee surgeon

Mr Grant has completed two prestigious international fellowships:
  • North Shore Hospital, Auckland, New Zealand – a world‑leading centre for knee surgery and sports trauma
  • Sports Surgery Fellowship, Perth, Australia – specialising in cutting‑edge sports injury treatment and soft‑tissue reconstruction

Before his international training, he worked at Wrightington Hospital, one of the UK’s most respected centres for orthopaedic excellence.

These experiences have shaped his modern, evidence‑based approach to diagnosing and treating knee disorders, ensuring patients benefit from the latest surgical techniques and global best practice.

Patient‑centred, evidence‑based care

Mr Grant uses the most up‑to‑date research and surgical innovations to create tailored treatment plans that support each patient’s goals—whether returning to elite sport, improving day‑to‑day mobility, or preventing further joint deterioration.

He completed his Orthopaedic training in the Mersey region, where he developed a strong commitment to teaching, mentoring, and surgical education. He continues this work in his NHS role at Wrexham Maelor Hospital, supporting the next generation of orthopaedic surgeons.

His passion for sport led him to undertake postgraduate training in Sports and Exercise Medicine, giving him a deeper understanding of athletic biomechanics and the unique needs of active patients.

Mr Grant has presented internationally and published widely in peer‑reviewed journals. His ongoing research ensures his patients receive care guided by the strongest clinical evidence.
