Nima Heidari

Spear’s Review

‘I have always wanted to be an orthopaedic surgeon,’ Professor Nima Heidari tells Spear’s. ‘My father is also an orthopaedic surgeon. One of my main drivers is my love of mechanics – to have an understanding of how things work.’

Heidari is a consultant orthopaedic surgeon specialising in foot and ankle conditions and limb reconstruction. His NHS practice is at the Royal London Hospital, while his private practice is at The London Clinic.

‘I work with a group of eminent orthopaedic surgeons using the latest techniques to preserve and improve joint function, reduce pain and to try and avoid complex surgery – a bit of a paradigm shift for someone who works as a surgeon.’
