His research interests, particularly in periprosthetic infection and hip surgery, have led to numerous publications in the field.
As part of Thrive4Life’s trusted network of specialist speakers, Simon recently delivered a lunchtime talk on "Hip and Knee Health – How to Stay Out of My Operating Theatre!" In this practical and engaging session, he explored how joint pain develops, how fear and uncertainty can worsen symptoms, and why early action is key to avoiding surgery. From knowing when to see a physiotherapist to understanding the value of a surgeon’s advice, Simon offered clear, actionable guidance to help attendees stay comfortable and active in daily life.
