Mr Neil Segaren

Neil is a Consultant Paediatric and Young Adult Hip Surgeon at the world-renowned Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital. He regularly manages some of the country’s most complex paediatric and young adult musculoskeletal problems and a significant portion of his practice involves tertiary referral work, sent on from other hospitals because of its difficult or rare nature.

Neil specialises in all aspects of non-spinal paediatric orthopaedics and has super-specialist expertise in advanced paediatric, adolescent and young adult hip preservation techniques and neuromuscular disorders such as cerebral palsy. He is triple fellowship trained, having spent one year at Sick Kids, Toronto the home of modern-day paediatric hip surgery and eighteen months at Great Ormond Steet, the best children’s Hospitals in North America and Europe respectively.  Two years at Europe’s busiest level one trauma centre (The Royal London), gave him a wide experience of caring for injured children.  He has a passion for computer navigated bone cuts (osteotomies) to improve surgical accuracy and human factors that reduce medical error.

With three young children of his own, Neil understands the large impact that surgery has on children and their families. He strives to ensure that every patient and their family feels supported and cared for throughout their journey with him, whilst specifically tailoring all treatments to their individual needs. As a concerned parent and clinician, he has been specially trained to respect, understand and manipulate the body’s ability to ‘self-heal’ (remodel) over time and he aims to be as non-invasive as possible to maximise results and minimise disruption.
