Mr Sivan Sivaloganathan

Sivan is a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon and a Specialist in Robotic Knee Surgery – one of only a few surgeons in the UK at the forefront of robot-assisted surgery. Sivan is globally recognised and is part of the global Visiting Surgeon Programme (VSP) where surgeons from across the globe travel to observe his cutting-edge operative technique.

Sivan read medicine at Imperial College, London, before serving with the British Army as a Medical Officer. Having deployed on an operational tour of Afghanistan, for which he was awarded the Herrick medal with clasp and the NATO medal in service of peace and freedom, he completed an MSc in Nanotechnology and Regenerative Medicine at University College, London. Sivan completed his Orthopaedic training in Southwest London before undertaking competitive fellowships, including the prestigious Complex Hip and Knee unit in Montreal, Canada, and in Robot-assisted Complex Knee and Complex Trauma at Imperial College Healthcare Trust.

Sivan’s specialist interests are in all areas of knee replacement surgery, particularly complex and robot-assisted. He is experienced in advanced robotic knee replacement surgery in both partial and total knee arthroplasty. Sivan also undertakes knee arthroscopy to treat knee pain and mechanical symptoms. Sivan brings a wealth of experience in managing early knee arthritis through a holistic approach.

Sivan’s extensive research portfolio focuses on personalised knee replacements that preserve the native alignments to give the patient a more natural feeling of the knee post-surgery. Invited as faculty to many international symposiums, Sivan has attended as an expert speaker across the globe, leading the development of robot-assisted surgery and personalised knee replacements.
