Professional statement

Mr Andraay Leung is a consultant orthopaedic spinal surgeon with practices based in Birmingham and Stourbridge. Specialising in spinal degenerative conditions, adult spinal deformity, spinal trauma, and minimally invasive spinal surgery, he offers his expertise both privately at Harborne Hospital in Birmingham and Stourside Hospital. He also maintains a busy NHS practice at University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust, known as the UK’s busiest major trauma centre.

Mr Leung’s focus lies solely on spinal surgery, addressing conditions affecting the cervical spine, thoracic spine, and lumbar spine. Beyond treating spinal degenerative conditions, Mr. Leung's subspecialist interests extend to spinal trauma and adult spinal deformity. Having graduated from the University of Glasgow, Mr. Leung pursued further training in trauma and orthopaedic surgery in the West of Scotland region. Following this, he completed combined orthopaedic and neurosurgical complex spinal fellowships at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust and University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust.

An advocate for remote consultations, Mr. Leung was among the early adopters of this approach, recognizing its benefits in terms of saving time and reducing travel for patients. He participated in a pioneering initiative in 2017 to trial virtual spinal clinics in Glasgow, offering telephone consultations to patients across the West of Scotland region. Since then, remote consultations have become integral to his clinical practice. Mr. Leung is deeply committed to teaching and research. Holding the position of honorary senior clinical lecturer at the University of Birmingham, and previously at the University of Glasgow, he has contributed as an associate principal investigator in two multi-center, randomised controlled trials in spinal trauma.

Additionally, he served on the steering committee of a multi-center observational study into cauda equina syndrome (UCES), with his work being featured in various peer-reviewed journals. In recognition of his expertise, he was invited to join the teaching faculty for the UK Advanced Spinal Trauma course organized by AO Spine, a leading global fraternity for spinal surgeons. Beyond his clinical and academic pursuits, Mr. Leung is a respected leader within the broader orthopaedic and surgical community. He served as Councillor for the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow from 2018 to 2021, representing surgeons outside Scotland. Additionally, he was nominated to attend the Future Leaders Programme for Surgeons with the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh in 2022-23.

He is an active member of various professional organizations, including the British Association of Spine Surgeons (BASS), AO Spine (as part of the teaching faculty), and Scoliosis Research Society (as a Candidate Member). He is also completing certification as a medicolegal expert with the Strathclyde University in 2024. Mr Leung has received excellent feedback from patients and these can be viewed on his personal website: www.aleungspine.com Mr Leung consults privately at Harborne Hospital (Birmingham) on Tuesday afternoons and Stourside Hospital (Stourbridge) on Mondays or Tuesday mornings. Remote consultations can be arranged ad hoc.

I recently saw Mr Leung with my elderly mother who was in need of spinal surgery. He made her feel safe and important throughout the consultation and during her hospital stay for surgery. He took time to explain everything
