An experienced private orthopaedic surgeon in London

Mr Goodier qualified from The London Hospital in 1985. His training took him to diverse places including the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital, St Georges Hospital, St Bartholomew’s Hospital, Colchester, Croydon, Newham and a three month stint at a trauma centre in Germany. He gravitated back to The Royal London Hospital, which had the first medically staffed helicopter emergency service in the UK, and remains the busiest centre for polytrauma in the UK. He became consultant there in 1996, and remained until the end of 2011.

Having developed an expertise in what was a the time a highly unfashionable specialty, Mr Goodier found himself being referred cases that were too complex to be dealt with elsewhere, or had unfortunately gone wrong. He learned and helped develop techniques in limb salvage surgery, and twice travelled to the Ilizarov Institute in Siberia to see what techniques they were using.

As well as the more complex trauma side of things, he has an interest in sports-related trauma, notably soft tissue andligament injuries of the knee and ankle.
