Mr Simon Boyle
Consultant Shoulder & Elbow Surgeon | York & Leeds
Simon Boyle’s interest in shoulder and elbow surgery was sparked by personal experience—dislocating his own shoulder playing rugby. This injury inspired his passion for helping others overcome similar conditions.
Simon graduated from the University of Leeds and trained extensively in Yorkshire, Australia, and France, where he was the first UK surgeon to perform the complex arthroscopic Latarjet stabilisation procedure. With a special interest in soft tissue disorders and sports injuries, Simon treats a wide range of patients, including international athletes across rugby, football, motorsports, tennis, golf, and more.
His dedication to research has earned him international recognition, including the prestigious Mel Post Award. Simon’s goal is to restore every patient back to their full potential as quickly and safely as possible.
