Mr Ziali Sivardeen is a highly respected Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon with extensive experience treating a wide range of patients, from elite athletes and Premier League footballers to high-profile individuals and members of the Royal Family. During the London 2012 Olympics, he was appointed as the dedicated Shoulder and Elbow Surgeon for Olympic and Paralympic athletes, a role that earned him recognition with an invitation to Buckingham Palace.

Mr Sivardeen has a particular interest in knee injuries, including ACL ruptures, meniscal damage, and cartilage problems, many of which have involved professional footballers. His leadership roles have included serving as Surgical Lead for the Sports Injury Service at Homerton University Hospital and acting as a Regional Surgical Advisor for London at the Royal Colleges of Surgeons.

Mr (Dr) Sivardeen is truly exceptional. He is polite, professional, humble, and incredibly caring. I would not choose to be seen by anyone else. After waiting many years — due to COVID and other health issues — I specifically requested to be under Mr Sivardeen’s care again. I am so grateful to be in his hands once more. Thank you, Sir! :-)

Ziali Sivardeen is a truly outstanding doctor. As a result of sports injuries (tennis, skiing) I have had multiple surgeries on all four limbs over decades. Sometimes I have wondered if I might have been better with physio and allowing the natural healing process to take place. The result is that, by the time I met Ziali, my shoulder was heavily compromised. His patience and reluctance to operate unless it was deemed absolutely necessary was unusual. When we did reach the conclusion that surgery was needed, the results were amazing. I regained my strength and was able to continue my loved sport without pain. Always so sensitive to the issues - managing pain, giving advice about rehabilitation, managing expectations (I am 68 but think I am much younger...) - Ziali is a vert special human being, quite apart from his obvious expert ability in his field. I could not recommend a doctor more highly or a person so warm and nice to meet.

Mr Siverdeen was very professional, spent a lot of time explaining procedures before surgery giving me a lor of reassurance. The post op appointments helped me see how much I had improved. Overall very positive outcome and I am happy to say I would contact Mr Sivardeen, if I needed similar treatments in the future.

This is the first surgery I ever had and Mr Sivardeen was amazing! He did a great job at explaining the procedure and making me feel comfortable and safe. He is very professional but so friendly and compassionate. I could not have asked for a better experience. Thank you so much.

Mr Silvadeen delivered the care and attention I had hoped for in choosing him to do my shoulder operation. Very happy with the improvement in the mobility of my arm and the reduction in pain after surgery.
