Professional statement
Mr Panagiotis Gikas is a highly accomplished consultant orthopaedic surgeon in the London area, paving the way in minimally invasive and muscle sparing direct anterior approach (DAA) hip replacement. As a leading surgeon, he also specialises in bone and soft tissue sarcomas, as well as hip and knee arthroplasty, knee cartilage injuries, surgical management of bone disease, and robotic assisted surgery. He is also a professor at the University of Cyprus.
Receiving his qualifications from St George's Medical School, Mr Gikas later completed his medical training in London where he became passionate about research in his field. Mr Gikas has done extensive research on topics such as hip and knee surgery and reconstruction involving robotic instruments, bone and soft tissue cancer, and the use of stem cells to treat cartilage damage. Currently, he is researching how to bring endoprosthetic joint replacements for tumour and complex revision surgeries to the next level, in addition to innovative applications of photodynamic therapy in infection prevention.
Most prominently in his work, direct anterior approach hip replacement that is both minimally invasive and muscle sparing has been his most recent speciality achievement. Mr Gikas has become a leading expert in this technique, allowing him to change the lives in so many of his patients. The technique does not require any tendons to be detached and uses the natural planes of the muscles for the incision work in the front of the hip. Hip replacement patients of Mr Gikas will experience the most advanced procedure available, performed by one of London's few accredited surgeons.
Professor Gikas continues to research and train junior surgeons as a visiting professor at the University of Cyprus. He has had peer-reviewed published work regarding his specialised focuses and has presented, as well. Professor Gikas currently works at Cleveland Clinic London and at the South West London Elective Orthopaedic Centre NHS Trust.

He shows care to the patients and has open communication lines to make sure every question or concern is adressed . Im very happy with the outcome of my surgery and I can recommend him with my eyes closed

Mr Gikas is an excellent surgeon delivering high quality orthopaedic care with a strong focus on shared decision making and optimising the clinical outcomes for patients.
I presented as a potentially complex case and he worked with me on a clinical plan to give me the best chance to achieve a great outcome. This meant after six months of working together he successfully undertook bilateral anterior hip replacement in a single procedure.
He has strong focus on patient care and involvement and maintains a strong level of communication, even when he can't physically be in the building, and touched base with either me directly or the clinical staff, or both every day of my admission.

Mr Gikas is an outstanding doctor. I have had three surgeries under Mr Gikas and each time he approachable, caring, empathetic and a good communicator. He is not in the least arrogant which I find so charming because he is an amazing surgeon.

Mr Gikas provided me with a clear and precise understanding of what operation needed to be done, how it was to be done, and of the post treatment care consequences and arrangements . He did this in a friendly and professional manner which enabled me to easily have every confidence in him. He then delivered against everything he set out. I am very pleased with the outcome.
