About

Mr Osama Aweid is a substantive consultant orthopaedic surgeon who specialises in the full spectrum of knee surgical procedures, including osteotomy, partial knee replacement, total knee replacement, cartilage repair, patella stabilisation, ACL reconstruction, multi-ligament knee reconstruction and meniscal repair operations. He is also an expert in the treatment and management of sports injuries, including exercise-induced leg pain (also known as shin splints), and was selected to join the Olympics medical team in 2012. In 2015 he was awarded membership of the Faculty of Sports and Exercise Medicine in recognition of his training in the specialty.

Mr Aweid qualified from St George’s University in London in 2008 and completed his trauma and orthopaedic specialist training at the Cambridge Deanery. He then went on to accomplish two internationally-renowned fellowships: The first at the Fowler Kennedy Institution for Sport and Exercise Medicine in Ontario, and the second at the Avon Orthopaedic Centre in Bristol. Through this experience, Mr Aweid acquired valuable expertise in all aspects of knee surgery across different healthcare systems, particularly with soft tissue knee surgery, osteotomy, uni-compartmental, total and revision knee arthroplasty.

Beyond his high-quality orthopaedic practice, Mr Aweid maintains a strong interest in education. He has two research degrees, alongside a Diploma in Sports and Exercise Medicine, and is a fellow of the Arthroscopy Association of Canada. 

Mr Aweid is actively involved in teaching programs. He has been an invited faculty member on several acclaimed courses including the Basingstoke knee osteotomy masterclass covering soft tissue knee reconstruction and complex osteotomy.
