Great surgeon, very caring and knowledgeable. Was very honest and truthfull with his advice . Also explained what would happen before, during and after my knee replacement. Now done and back on my feet living full life. All what he told me was exactly correct. Lovely kind , calm man with a great ability. Even operation ,( which I was worried about whilst awake,) was perfection and an amazing experience, even though you hear things it was pain free and great to talk to all the great staff who looked after me as soon as op had finished. Would recommend Mr Batra any day. Well done and Thank You. David Hoult

Just wanted to say after being discharged today how fantastic Mr Batra has been over the last 18 months. I have had two surgeries, one total hip replacement and a knee arthroscopy both which have been a resounding success. Mr Batra always goes that extra mile putting my family and I at ease every step of the way. Mr Batra is a very knowledgeable, personable and all round nice man who I would thoroughly recommend to anyone. And a special mention to Judith his Secretary always very polite and if I left a message always got back to me every single time. Thank you both

I found Dr Batra to be extremely professional with a lovely, caring manner. It was my 2nd knee replacement operation and I was very anxious. He put me at ease, explained everything in great detail. I had the operation at Salford Royal Hospital this year and am pleased to say I am now pain free. I would like to thank Dr Batra very much for his care and attention and would definitely recommend him to anyone thinking of having an orthopedic procedure.

Dear Dr Batra Firstly I want to thank you for how the operation went, the care at Oaklands and especially how good my knee looks in such a short space of time! I can honestly say that this is the best I have been after any operation, even though I know this is operation was only minor and quite straightforward for yourself. The team you have and the aftercare is excellent. Thank you for your excellent work on my knee and hopefully I'll be back playing again very soon! Wishing you and your staff continuing success.

Profile

I have been a Hip & Knee Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon at Salford Royal Hospital since 2010.

I perform Hip and Knee Replacement, Revision Hip and Knee Replacement, Arthroscopic (keyhole) Hip and Knee Surgery, including ACL reconstruction.

I see people with any type of sports injury to arrange diagnostic tests and organise treatment and rehabilitation.

I am one of few Orthopaedic Consultants in the region who has also completed their Sports Medicine Membership exams (MFSEM) with the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh. This gives me an unique insight into sporting injuries, training methods sports psychology as well as nutrition.

I am a keen runner and still run in the Vets Category for Sale Harriers with a marathon PB of just over 3 hours. I have played a number of different sports at a good level including badminton and squash for my University.

I am happy to see patients who have sporting ambitions at any level and are struggling to get back to their sport. You will get honest advice about what can and cannot be done.

I understand how important it is for you to be able to continue to do the sport that you love so much and I will do my best to help you achieve this.

I qualified in 1995 from University of Wales College of Medicine with Commendation. I did my basic Surgical Training (MRCS) in Manchester in 1998. I spent three years at the Manchester Medical School conducting research into how cells behave when human bone heals after it has broken, for which I was awarded my PhD. I started higher surgical training in 2003 and passed my FRCS (Orth) exam in 2007. During my training, I did the Bolton Knee Fellowship, Leicester Hip Fellowship and visited the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota to complete a Visiting Clinician’s Fellowship. I completed my MFSEM with The Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh in 2018.

Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile.
