hipdr.co.uk is the personal medical website of Tim Board, an orthopaedic consultant at Wrightington Hospital in the UK and a visiting professor at The University of Manchester. The site focuses on hip and knee conditions, especially joint replacement and arthroscopic surgery, offering patients professional guidance across the full journey—from disease education and surgical risks to post-operative rehabilitation.
The site covers detailed information on hip and knee anatomy, types of conditions, surgical risks and complications, pre-operative preparation, and post-operative care. Its standout feature is the extremely detailed guidance on daily life after surgery: it covers not only sleeping positions and how long to use walking aids, but also recovery timelines and precautions for activities such as golf, skiing, swimming, and even horse riding. The site also integrates a customized rehabilitation app developed in partnership with myrecovery.ai, providing patients with staged video guidance, interactive exercises, and progress tracking.
All educational articles, surgical videos, and rehabilitation guides on the website are freely available. Actual surgery costs fall under the UK healthcare system: NHS patients may receive treatment free of charge, while private clinic patients need to request pricing directly from the hospital.
The main strengths are its highly professional and detailed content, backed by a senior doctor with extensive clinical experience; its post-operative rehabilitation guidance is very patient-centered and covers a wide range of everyday scenarios; and the companion app further improves the efficiency of rehabilitation management outside the hospital. The drawbacks are that the site has a strong personal-practice focus and mainly serves Prof. Board’s own patients; the web design is relatively traditional, with somewhat lengthy information hierarchy; and it lacks online booking or instant messaging consultation features.
It is mainly suited to patients who are about to undergo surgery with Tim Board, as well as prospective patients or family members worldwide who want to understand the details of hip and knee replacement surgery and the key precautions for post-operative recovery.
The site is directly accessible from mainland China with normal loading speed and no proxy required. However, all content is in English, and the healthcare system and follow-up standards are based on the UK. For Chinese patients, it should be used only as general medical education and not as a substitute for advice from local doctors.
