Mr Geza Kordas MD PhD FRCS

I was born and raised in Budapest, Hungary. I attended Semmelweis Medical School an institution with a rich history going back over 250 years. Following my orthopedic and trauma training I went to the UK in 2005. I had further specialist training in a wide range of subspecialties and a formal fellowship in hip and knee replacement surgery at the University Hospital of Coventry and Warwickshire. I was first appointed as a consultant in the UK in 2009.

Between 2013-19 I worked for Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. Since 2019 I have been working exclusively in the private sector.

I specialise in hip and knee replacement surgery, joint preservation and sports injuries of the knee.

I am experienced in total hip replacement surgery using proven implants and muscle sparing techniques.

In the knee I use both total and partial knee replacements including patello-femoral implants depending on the areas affected by arthritis. 

As a unique service I am also offering custom made knee replacements.

Knee arthroscopy (keyhole operation) is a major part of my work including operations for meniscal tears, cartilage defects and instability.

I led the implementation of a rapid recovery and day surgery pathway for joint replacement patients at the Cherwell hospital in north Oxfordshire. This brings several benefits for our patients with better pain management, quicker mobilisation and sleeping in their own bed on the day of surgery!

I have a special interest in the use of digital technology for precision, data driven, personalised medicine.

Academic background

​

I hold a Ph.D degree in cartilage research and I am the author of several papers published internationally on this subject as well as on aspects of hip surgery.
