Mr Ali Abbasian is a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon who specialises exclusively in foot and ankle conditions. Based at Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust, he also sees patients privately. His practice includes both routine and complex reconstructive and sports procedures, with particular expertise in total ankle replacements and minimally invasive (keyhole) bunion correction.

Mr Abbasian is frequently referred complex cases from other orthopaedic centres and is well regarded for offering clear, evidence-based second opinions.

He completed his specialist training in orthopaedic surgery on the Imperial College rotation in London and was awarded Fellowship of the Royal College of Surgeons of England. He then undertook advanced sub-specialist training through a prestigious Foot and Ankle Fellowship at the New England Foot and Ankle Center, Mercy Hospital, Portland, Maine — a programme recognised by the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society.

Importantly unlike surgical podiatrists, Mr Abbasian is a medically trained doctor who has gone on to specialise in orthopaedic foot and ankle surgery.

He is the Chief of Foot and Ankle Surgery at Guy’s Hospital and Director of the Foot and Ankle Fellowship Programme, where he trains senior orthopaedic surgeons in managing complex foot and ankle conditions.
