One for @NorthWestORC

Today I carried out my last ever operation after 33 years as a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon. An honour and a privilege to have worked with such tremendous people and patients.Loyalty, skill, kindness, dedication, trust, professionalism and humour. Absolutely humbling.

Just published on Orthopaedics Online: ‘North West Orthopaedic Trainees Association ‘SAS Colleague of the Year’ by Antonio Frasquet Garcia, outlining the key attributes a successful trainer must have. Read it here: bit.ly/3UJcTA7 @DrFrasquet #orthotwitter
