Experience
Mr Veysi is the leading hip and knee replacement surgeon in the region with over 20 years as a consultant.
He has performed over 7000 hip and knee replacements with excellent results, as evidenced by his portfolio in the National Joint Registry.
He takes pride in providing a patient centred approach to delivering treatment options to people presenting with problems related to their hip and knees. This approach starts from the time of initial assessment, decisions on the types of investigations and finally to the treatment options.
He offers the most advanced techniques in hip and knee replacements, including robotic hip, knee and partial knee replacements to maximise early recovery and long-term outcomes. He was the first surgeon in West Yorkshire to use the Velys robotic knee system and trains other colleagues and surgeons in its use.
His practice has evolved to care for complex problems of the hip and the knee. His NHS practice at Chapel Allerton Hospital is dominated by Revision Surgery where he treats people with failed hip and knee replacements referred to him from across Yorkshire. He is the Clinical Lead for the West Yorkshire Revision Network and represents the region in national meetings.
He is interested in training younger colleagues and teaches on joint replacement courses as well as supervising trainees in their final years of training before they become consultants.
