- Overview
About
Mr Tofunmi Oni is a consultant orthopaedic surgeon specialising in complex hip and knee surgery. His practice covers primary hip and knee replacement, revision hip replacement, and joint-preserving treatments including Arthrosamid injections.
He holds a substantive NHS consultant post alongside his private practice at Nuffield Health Tunbridge Wells Hospital, and sees patients across Kent, Sussex and London.
He has trained in robotic-assisted hip and knee replacement and uses these techniques where they offer a measurable benefit to the patient. He also spent a period of his fellowship training in Sydney, Australia, working alongside high-volume hip and knee surgeons in a different healthcare system, an experience that shaped how he thinks about both surgical technique and patient pathways.
His clinical approach is built around careful diagnosis and shared decision-making. The right operation, performed at the right time, on the right patient, is the foundation of a good outcome. Equally important is recognising when surgery is not the answer. Patients can expect a thorough first consultation, a clear explanation of all available options including non-surgical management, and a structured recovery pathway with defined milestones and direct access to his team.
