I graduated in 1999 from the University of Dundee. Basic surgical training was in Newcastle followed by an MD investigating the cellular biology of bone metastases. Higher specialist training was in Perth and Dundee followed by a return to the North East as NIHR Academic Clinical Lecturer.
My current post as Consultant consists of 80% oncology and 20% lower limb arthroplasty. I have protected research time in my job plan. This allows me to pursue research at Newcastle University which include basic and translational projects such as detection of circulating tumour cells in sarcoma and the optimisation of cell surface targets for the development of fluorescence guided sarcoma surgery.

Our Bone & Soft Tissue Tumour Team team are drawn from The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital in Birmingham and The Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital ,Stanmore , two of the preeminent  UK (as well as  international ) centres for this very specialised areas of Orthopaedics.

All the images are of the named authors carrying out their own techniques and the operative descriptions and questions are written by themselves.

Bone & soft tissue tumour work is one area in particular where wholistic and multidisciplinary assessment pre-operation(including specialist Orthopaedic radiologists and Oncologists) is mandatory. Post-operative monitoring and chemo and or radiotherapy are often required as well. The foregoing combined with its rarity make it therefore the work specialist units and specialist Surgeons.

Where operative techniques are demonstrated using an implant this reflects the authors own technique as  used in their practice. Their demonstration is not an endorsement of technique or implant by either OrthOracle, the Royal College of Surgeons  or the manufacturer and should not be regarded as such.

Full technical and operative details are available from the manufacturer and should be referred to by those considering the use of any implant.

The detailing of particular products or implants on OrthOracle should not be taken as an indication that these are superior to other similar products, which may perform to similar standards.
