Mr Khalid Malik is a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon specialising in hip and knee surgery, with an established practice in East Sussex. He is a Consultant at East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust and provides private consultations and surgery at Sussex Premier Health in Hastings.

Conditions treated

Mr Malik sees patients with a broad range of hip and knee problems, including:

Hip conditions

  • Hip osteoarthritis and degenerative joint disease
  • Trochanteric bursitis
  • Gluteal tendinopathy
  • Hip injuries and activity-related pain
  • Painful, stiff or failed hip replacements

  • Knee osteoarthritis and degenerative joint disease
  • Meniscal and cartilage problems
  • Patellofemoral pain
  • Patellar and quadriceps tendinopathy
  • Knee bursitis
  • Overuse and activity-related knee injuries

Primary, complex and revision joint replacement surgery

Mr Malik’s practice extends beyond primary hip and knee replacement. He has specialist expertise in complex primary joint replacement and revision hip and knee surgery, including the assessment and treatment of painful, problematic and failed joint replacements.

Mr Malik participates in an active multidisciplinary team (MDT), where complex and revision cases can be reviewed collaboratively with specialist colleagues. This is particularly valuable where previous surgery has failed, the diagnosis is uncertain, or complex reconstructive surgery may be required.

Mr Malik routinely provides second opinions, including for patients considering joint replacement, those with complex hip or knee problems, and those experiencing ongoing symptoms follow     g previous joint replacement surgery.

Surgery isn’t always the answer

Mr Malik places considerable importance on establishing the correct diagnosis, explaining the options clearly and helping patients decide what treatment is appropriate for them.

Depending on the problem, treatment may simply involve reassurance and advice, physiotherapy, pain management or injection therapy. For selected patients with knee osteoarthritis, he also offers Arthrosamid® as a non-surgical treatment option.

Mr Malik will recommend surgery when there is a clear indication and when the expected benefits justify the intervention.

Patient care, outcomes and experience

Mr Malik’s practice combines a focus on consistently good clinical outcomes with clear communication, shared decision-making and high standards of patient care. His practice is complemented by consistently excellent independent patient feedback, with patients frequently highlighting his communication, professionalism and overall quality of care. This commitment has been recognised with successive iWantGreatCare Certificates of Excellence in 2024 and 2025.
