Keeping your own knee for longer
Many Barnsley patients in their 40s and 50s are told their only options are painkillers now and a knee replacement later. Mr Riaz performs around 40 knee osteotomies a year — realignment surgery that shifts load away from the worn part of the knee — alongside cartilage regeneration and meniscal transplant, so active patients can often keep their own knee for years longer. When replacement is the right answer, he offers robotic-assisted (VELYS) partial and total knee replacement.

- Osteotomy (realignment) surgery for early arthritis
- Cartilage regeneration, including the AutoCart technique
