About

Mr Oliver Templeton-Ward is a highly experienced Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon specialising exclusively in knee surgery, with over a decade of expertise in advanced joint preservation, complex sports injuries, and robotic-assisted joint replacements across clinics in Guildford and Central London.

He treats a wide range of patient-recognised conditions, from knee instability, pain, and giving way caused by ligament tears or kneecap dislocation, to the chronic stiffness and limited mobility brought on by advanced knee arthritis. To help patients return to an active lifestyle, he offers a comprehensive range of treatments, including advanced ACL and complex ligament reconstructions, joint preservation techniques, and highly precise robotic-assisted partial and total knee replacements.

His expertise is backed by premier international fellowship training in Sydney and a ten-year tenure as a trusted NHS consultant at the Royal Surrey County Hospital, alongside his current academic role as an Honorary Clinical Senior Lecturer at the University of Surrey Medical School. Grounded in a patient-centred approach, Mr Templeton-Ward focuses on clear communication and shared decision-making, ensuring that medical findings are translated into straightforward terms so that every patient feels confident, fully informed, and supported through a fast and predictable recovery.
