Thursday 13th and Friday 14th May 2027, Pavilions of Harrogate

For the 4th year in a row, the Harrogate Partial Knee Meeting returns in 2027.

The two-day meeting will build on the success of the previous meetings with an expanded, refined programme focused on practical decision-making and contemporary partial knee practice.

The programme will continue the meeting’s highly regarded interactive format, featuring case-based discussions, panel debates and open Q&A sessions designed to encourage honest discussion around challenges, failures and learning points — not just ideal cases.
 
There will also be a series of practical breakout sessions, giving delegates the opportunity to engage in small-group, hands-on learning. These sessions will focus on applied aspects of partial knee practice, allowing detailed discussion of technique, decision-making and common challenges in an interactive setting.
 
As in previous years, the course is designed to be highly relevant and immediately applicable, whether delegates are looking to start, consolidate or grow a partial knee arthroplasty practice.

Convenors

Nick London

Nick London is an specialist knee surgeon with more than 20 years’ experience…

… in sports injuries, knee arthritis and knee replacement surgery. In 2018 he was appointed Visiting Professor to the Leeds Beckett University Carnegie School of Sport in recognition of his work with sports injuries.

After graduating from Cambridge University and a training scheme in Yorkshire, he completed a one-year sports knee fellowship in Australia before becoming a consultant in 2000. He has set up and developed The Yorkshire Knee Clinic and is a founder member of the European Knee Society.

Nick believes that the ability to manage all orthopaedic knee conditions from those developing in children and adolescents, through sports injuries in athletes of all abilities (elite professionals to ‘weekend warriors’) and ultimately to knee replacement in patients with severe arthritis is crucial to providing a complete service.

His main interests are in injury prevention/treatment for children and young athletes and managing the young, active patient with arthritis. He works with the orthopaedic industry to develop and evaluate the latest treatments and techniques, has a busy clinical research portfolio and lectures extensively at international meetings.

 

Dave Duffy

Dave is currently the lead surgeon for acute knee Injuries at Harrogate District…

… Hospital and has successfully treated many professional athletes. He has performed thousands of arthroscopic procedures (ACL reconstruction and meniscal surgery) throughout his career. His approach is directed at diagnosing the extent of a new injury quickly. Being able to start treatment early, especially for conditions where this is time critical, is essential to achieving the best result. The support of specialist physiotherapists, plus swift and high quality investigations help to achieve this goal.

A significant part of his practice is the management of arthritis of the knee and he treats a high volume of patients. According to current National Joint Registry data, he performs almost double the number of total knee replacements each year relative to the national average and more than four times the average number of partial knee replacements.

 

Damian Bull

Mr Damian Bull is a consultant trauma and orthopaedic surgeon specialising in…

… knee surgery. Prior to medical training, Mr Bull completed a degree in engineering and spent time working for a multinational engineering firm in Switzerland. His background in engineering naturally led to an interest in orthopaedic surgery. He gained his medical degree at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne and completed trauma and orthopaedic surgical training in the Yorkshire and Humber region. During his training, he also completed a national leadership and management fellowship.

Mr Bull has specialised in the management of knee disorders through two renowned fellowships. His first fellowship was with Professor Nick London and Mr David Duffy at Harrogate District Hospital, followed by a further fellowship at the Avon Orthopaedic Centre in Bristol with Mr James Robinson and Mr James Murray. His fellowship experience has allowed him to experience the breadth of modern arthroplasty and soft tissue techniques. He has developed specialist expertise in sports injuries, ligament reconstruction, meniscal repair, early arthritis treatment, patello-femoral joint disorders and joint replacement surgery (partial and total).

He was appointed as a consultant orthopaedic and specialist knee surgeon at Harrogate District Hospital in 2021.

Mr Bull is involved in teaching trainee surgeons and holds a postgraduate certificate in medical education. He is actively involved in research with numerous publications and has delivered multiple national and international presentations.
