"I have enormously enjoyed being part of the Trauma Committee. The COVID-19 pandemic has led to unique strains upon trauma care in the UK. I feel honoured to be able to help in ensuring that patient care is prioritised as we attempt to recover. Membership of the Committee has allowed to me share ideas with, and learn from, experienced orthopaedic surgeons around the country. This, for me, has crystallised into a multidisciplinary project to improve orthoplastic care in the UK. I highly recommend that you consider applying for a role with the BOA. I am confident that you will find it stimulating and fulfilling.

"Medico-legal work has formed a substantial part of my orthopaedic practice over the last 20 years. It has shaped my practice and educated me in ways I did not imagine when starting out. Through their career most orthopaedic surgeons will encounter the legal profession from one side or the other. By joining the BOA Medico-legal Committee I have engaged with likeminded individuals keen to pass on their experience and knowledge, and we hope to support and empower orthopaedic surgeons in their interactions with the legal profession."
