Post CCT Foot & Ankle Fellowship 

Background :

 Barts Health is one of the largest NHS trusts in the UK with over 16,000 staff treating over 2.5 million people in East London and beyond. Barts Bone & Joint Health provides orthopaedic care across three sites; The Royal London Hospital - one of the busiest trauma centres in Europe, Barts Health Orthopaedic Centre – a dedicated, GIRFT accredited, elective orthopaedic unit in Newham and Whipps Cross Hospital – a specialist fragility fracture unit.

This fellowship is uniquely equipped to provide a full exposure to all aspects of F&A trauma and elective care. The Royal London Hospital provides Level 1 trauma experience with high volumes of complex F&A trauma, as well as the opportunity to maintain general trauma skills. We work closely with our Limb Reconstruction colleagues and orthoplastic teams to provide world class trauma care for the full spectrum of F&A trauma, including complex articular and open injuries. Whipps Cross is home to our dedicated fragility fracture service where there is exposure to complex fragility fractures, often in multiply co-morbid patients and thus providing a different breadth of exposure and decision-making.
