MR JAMES HOLTON BM BSc MRes FRCS (T&O)
I am a Trauma and Orthopaedic Consultant specialising in hip and knee arthroplasty and soft tissues disorders. I hold a substantive position at Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. I offer comprehensive management of hip conditions including primary joint replacement, hip resurfacing alongside soft tissue surgery (arthroscopic) and revision arthroplasty for all cause revisions of the hip. I perform partial and total knee replacement and arthroscopic (key-hole) procedures.
I commenced my surgical training in the West-Midlands Deanery (Birmingham) and worked with Birmingham University as an Academic Clinical Fellow (ACF). The focus of my research was in joint preservation using injectable stem cells to enhance chondrocyte growth and development. I subsequently completed a masters in clinical research (MRes) before transferring to the Thames Valley Deanery (Oxford) to finish my academic work and complete my surgical training.
To gain more specialist training in the management of hip and knee conditions I completed a fellowship in lower limb arthroplasty and young adult hip disorders in Reading at the Royal Berkshire Hospital. I then completed my fellowship training at the world renowned Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre in Oxford. A centre that specialises in the management of complex primary and revision arthroplasty including infection and periprosthetic fracture management.
“Thank you so much for looking after me, being able to walk again is amazing.”
“I am able to walk normally again. I am very grateful for your skill and consideration.”
“First of all I would like to thank Mr Pegrum. He was fantastic and took time to explain what had happened to my knee and explained it in really good detail.”
“Mr Pegrum treated me like a person and not just a number, which made me feel safe and cared for”
