Overview
The knee is one of the body’s most complex joints and a common source of chronic pain affecting athletes, active adults, and older patients with osteoarthritis alike. Whether the pain originates from articular cartilage degeneration, the menisci, ligaments, bursae, or the patellar tendon, Dr Malik’s specialist knee assessment identifies the precise source and matches treatment accordingly. He is one of the few private consultants in the South East offering genicular nerve radiofrequency ablation, an advanced technique that provides 12–24 months of significant pain relief for patients with knee osteoarthritis who are not suitable for, or wish to delay, knee replacement.
