About Mr Paul Culpan

Mr Culpan, Trauma and Orthopaedic surgeon works for The Royal London Hospital, one of the largest trauma centres in Europe. His areas of specialisation include hip and knee replacements, anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, complex hip reconstruction, arthroscopic knee surgery, and revision hip replacements. Within his speciality, he is one of a few doctors globally that perform customised hip replacements with minimally invasive techniques.

In 1996 Mr Culpan graduated from the University of Manchester with a bachelor's in both medicine and surgery. Following that he began his basic surgical training, performing surgical rotations at both Bart's and Royal London. He completed his higher surgical training in Trauma and orthopaedic surgery at University College London. Later on, in 2005, he was awarded a fellowship from the Royal College of Surgeons and completed his training in 2007.

Following the completion of his fellowship, Mr Culpan undertook an additional year-long fellowship under the well renowned Orthopaedic surgeon Prof Judet in France. After finishing this final fellowship he then went on to be a consultant in Abu Dhabi, returning to the UK in 2010 to work within the Bart's Health Trust. Mr Culpan during his career has also had a keen interest in research and has an excellent publication history.

Currently, Mr Culpan works as a senior consultant for Royal London Hospital in which he takes on additional teaching roles. He also works alongside that in central London on his private practice where patients from around the world seek him out due to his expertise. He remains a highly prevalent and active surgeon within his field with a specific interest in custom hip and knee replacements (CT planned), pelvic and acetabular trauma, revision, and complex arthroplasty. Recently, he has developed a keen interest in osteointegration and rehabilitation.

I was very impressed with the whole experience from my initial visit and subsequent full knee replacement surgery, aftercare and nothing is left unclear and was fully explained in a truly professional unhurried manner. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Mr Culpan .

Mr Culpan has been an absolute superstar. I broke my femur quite severely in 2023 skiing and had surgery out in Italy. I came home and after 6 months there was no healing. I was referred to Mr Culpan to take a look at my leg and his expert advice and guidance. Over the last two years he has been a huge support. 10 out of 10 to him, I would massively recommend him to anyone. Finally I would like to add my sincere thanks to Mr Culpan, you’ve got me through one of the hardest parts of my life with your calm and practical help and advice.

Mr Paul Culpan is calm, kind, caring, attentive, and the very Best at what he does! He gives a clear and concise explanation visually using the MRI as to what is causing one’s pain, in my case meniscus issues causing knee pain and limping. His team are great at making certain you are seen ASAP! They even set up a MRI for me the same day as my appointment once Mr Paul Culpan deemed it necessary with a follow up appointment 3 days later. The MRI revealed Keyhole surgery was necessary, his team were able to schedule me for this surgery within a week and a half’s time. Eventually I will need the dreaded knee replacement surgery, but for now my knee is healing well and I’ve been back to work, 2 weeks after surgery! I’m grateful for Mr Paul Culpan and his team, I trust him completely and when knee replacement is necessary, hopefully not for a long time, it will be Mr Paul Culpan who does it. Thank you Mr Paul Culpan and Team, Julie x

Extremely impressed by Mr Cuplan's skill as a Surgeon. His advice and guidance before and post surgery was excellent. He is very personable and I would highly recommend him. I had a full hip replacement on my right side and was walking unaided within day 2 post surgery.

Mr Culpan, is a highly skilled consultant who is very proficient in his profession. Made me feel completely comfortable and reassured with the hip replacement I needed. The whole procedure went as planned and without any issues and I am now recovering well. I can’t recommend Mr Culpan highly enough one of the best surgeons in his field.
