He is a certified orthopedic surgeon in the UK and a member of the British Orthopaedic Association (BOA).

Additionally, he completed advanced fellowships, working alongside Professor Martin Stone at Chapel Allerton Hospital in the UK, gaining deep knowledge in diagnosing and surgically managing hip and knee pathologies. He further advanced his expertise through annual fellowships at York Hospital, NHS Trust, improving his skills in Arthroscopy, Revision Arthroplasty, and Trauma Surgery of the Upper and Lower Limbs. To enhance his surgical skills in hip surgery, he completed the AMIS training program by MEDACTA in Switzerland, focusing on hip and knee replacements. In Strasbourg, he further developed his orthopedic techniques related to complex lower limb trauma and intramedullary nailing of femur and tibia fractures.

He has performed over 10,000 surgeries to date, with low complication rates, as per the UK registry. He holds a Master’s degree (MSc.) in Healthcare Management from the Open University of Athens, as well as a Postgraduate Diploma (PGDip) in Computer-Assisted Orthopedic Surgery, awarded by the CAOS committee in the UK.

During his latest position at York Hospital, NHS Trust (UK), he was responsible for managing and surgically restoring hip fractures in geriatric patients, following best practice protocols set by the N.I.C.E. Institute, UK.

He has a keen interest in the surgical treatment of hip fractures using minimally invasive techniques (MIS) and has adopted modern and rapid recovery techniques for trauma patients. He has significant experience and training in contemporary hip approaches, including the anterior (AMIS) and minimally invasive posterior (SPAIRE) approaches. In addition to treating traumatic limb injuries in adults and children, his current practice includes Patient Specific Instrumentation (PSI), Robotic Navigated Knee & Hip Surgery, Arthroscopic Surgery, and new techniques involving biological therapies for the preservation of major joints.
