with a sub-specialist interest in partial, total and revision knee Arthroplasty. Amy read medicine at the University of Oxford, she has a masters in medical education and went on to complete a PhD at  Imperial College, London. Her research investigates the clinical outcomes and biomechanics of Compartmental Arthroplasty of the knee. Amy has reported a biomechanical advantage of medial and lateral unicompartmental arthroplasty, both in isolation and in combination, compared to posterior-cruciate retaining total knee arthroplasty. Amy’s cadaveric studies demonstrated that partial knee arthroplasty preserves nearer-native anterior posterior stability and extensor mechanism efficiency. In the gait laboratory, Amy has demonstrated that compartmental arthroplasty is associated with nearer-normal vertical ground reaction forces and high levels of patient satisfaction, compared to matched posterior-cruciate retaining total knee arthroplasty and healthy control subjects. To date, Amy has published more than 21 research papers. She has presented on 22 podiums across the world.

…which hosts the North East Major Revision Centre. My practice is entirely devoted to knee arthroplasty (partial, total and revision) with a particular interest in problematic, painful and stiff total knee replacements. I undertook his medical training in Manchester, including a PhD in tendon biology, followed by orthopaedic training in Newcastle and Northumbria on the North East Rotation.

To complement my clinical work, I continue to collaborate with research scientists in Newcastle University to improve our understanding of the development of stiffness after knee replacement and improve treatment for this challenging patient group. I was elected to the BASK Executive Committee in September 2024, and as Junior Member I hope to develop BASK’s appeal to trainees, fellows and young consultants and increase the number of trainee members through trainee specific sessions at BASK meetings.
