Professional statement

Mr Rohit Maheshwari is an esteemed consultant orthopaedic surgeon based in Glasgow. With over 20 years of experience in his field, Mr Maheshwari is renowned for his expertise in all aspects of hip and knee surgery, including hip replacement and knee replacement procedures, for the treatment of hip arthritis, knee arthritis, hip pain, knee pain and wider joint pain symptoms. Mr Maheshwari currently sees private patients at Ross Hall Hospital.

He was appointed Consultant orthopaedic surgeon at Golden Jubilee University National Hospital in 2013, where he has performed more than 2,000 hip and knee replacement surgeries to date. Mr Maheshwari has a special interest in robotic-assisted joint replacement surgery. Whilst using the latest techniques and evidence-based practice, Mr Maheshwari also puts an emphasis on the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) programme to enable faster rehabilitation and thereby early functional recovery after hip and knee replacement surgery.

Mr Maheshwari completed specialist orthopaedic training in India in 1997 from Jiwaji University before relocating to the UK. Mr Maheshwari developed an interest in hip and knee surgery early in his career, and has worked in highly renowned centres in the UK before starting his Consultant position. He has accomplished two accredited fellowships: a one-year fellowship in complex hip and knee replacement surgery at the Southern General Hospital, and a British Orthopaedic Association’s fellowship in joint replacement surgery at University Hospital of North Tees.

Further to his quality hip and knee orthopaedic practice, Mr Maheshwari is a prominent figure in medical education. At present, he sits on the national selection interview panel for orthopaedic trainees, and is an examiner for both The University of Glasgow and The Royal College of Surgeons. Mr Maheshwari, who is on the GMC’s specialist register for trauma and orthopaedic surgery, also serves as a secondary care appraiser at Golden Jubilee University National Hospital.
