Great day at @JubileeHospital for the annual orthopaedic research symposium. Exciting to see the standard of work from the current research fellows, setting the standard for the years to come! 🦴🔨
Well done to @jackbayram for winning the Kamal Deep memorial award. 💪

A great opportunity to present some of the work I’ve been involved with in NHS Fife with @PhilWalmsley4. More to come from here! An excellent day with some really inspiring talks, particularly from Prof Xavier Griffin. #orthoresearch#ortho
Congratulations to EoS T&O trainee Scott Morrison for being awarded 1st Prize at the TORC Annual Scientific Meetig today in Dundee, for his research project carried out in NHS Fife Orthopaedics on TKA in younger patients

Really inspiring talk from Prof Griffin. Surround yourself with good people who believe in you, and follow your passion - even if that involves taking risks. Don’t look at failures as an ending, but just part of the journey. 💪🦴
“Taking risks” - the keynote address from @xlgriffin . Fascinating and very insightful presentation about his research journey so far. Take home message - build a network, accept failure and enjoy the journey. #TORC2024
Brilliant start to TORC Meeting @ApexHotels, Dundee. TORC President Ms Katie Hoban opened the meeting. Over 100 registrations. Wow!. Looking forward to the day. @TayOrthopaedics, @UoDMedicine, @NHSTayside
An excellent insight into Mr. Sargeant’s fellowship to Perth, Australia. Lots of interesting orthopaedic discussion, as well as some pictures of the sun and sea! #TORC#MedTwitter#orthotwitter
TORC conference is coming up. This year’s theme is ‘The Changing Face of Modern Orthopaedic Surgery’. An excellent day of talks from esteemed colleagues, and industry partners, as well as brilliant research from the department and local medical students!

Proud moment for the department and all staff members involved in the set-up of this. Excellent to be able to offer this service to Jon, and to other patients as we go forward! #orthotwitter#MedTwitter#daycase#surgery#speedyrecovery
Delighted to be awarded one of the BHS Travelling Fellowship bursaries for 2023. Congrats also to @KLogishetty and what a list of previous alumni!! #BHS2023
Pleased to announce it’s finally here. McRae’s Elective Orthopaedics.
Honoured to have been asked to edit the completely new version to accompany the successful Trauma edition.
It’s been an epic journey! It is hopefully comprehensive, concise and accessible!
Waiting >6 months for a hip/knee replacement is associated with a ⬇️quality of life and ⬆️frailty.
Increased frailty is associated with greater operative risk. Current NHS waiting times are much longer than 6 months.📈

Great work from @oliviapestrin & Bethany Hull: women in surgery events alone don’t change med student perceptions of gender discrimination in #orthopaedics.
BUT exposure to T&O affects desire to do it
Med schools must retain MSK attachments in courses

I waited for things to settle; but I’m so happy to say I’ve been accepted for a T&O training number in the East of Scotland. I couldn’t be happier that the hard work has paid off! I wouldn’t have been able to do it without a year of support working in @EdinOrthopaedic, thank you!
