Following this, he took up a fellowship of high-volume hip and knee replacement surgery at the University of British Columbia Hospital in Vancouver, Canada. He expanded his sub-specialty experience with a fellowship of foot and ankle reconstruction at Queen Elizabeth II Hospital in Halifax, Canada.

He explains why a certain treatment is preferred to suit their circumstances, aiming to relieve them of pain and to improve their mobility.

Teaching and mentoring orthopaedic registrars are two of Matthew’s special interests and he takes pleasure in their progress within their professional careers. He carries out research in his sub-specialty fields, publishing his findings in various medical periodicals.
