Great to see RAPSODI taking off. lnkd.in/eW92Z5Ha
I remain of the view it is cadaveric, as in pertaining to cadavers. Maybe my learned colleagues @Gnomelover1970 @myelbowdoc @lbowfixr will have a view? We already know @ExeterHipUnit thoughts!
Very excited to be involved again. Let the debate begin as to whether it’s a cadaver or cadaveric course @ExeterHipUnit

Very pleased to be collaborating with this talented bunch again...
It’s back! After the success of last year’s course we are hosting another. Day 1 is hand and peripheral nerve and day 2 is elbow approaches. Great faculty and great learning opportunity! First first serve so get in quick. @shouldersurg @jmceachan @dominicpower1 @NicolaFine1

Very many thanks also to Exmouth Coastwatch (and apparently #exmouthRNLI!) for watching my slow progress back to shore this afternoon.
Masterful inactivity with catlike observations! Such an asset to this beautiful beach - thank you 👏👏👏

So many thanks to #exmouthfire for finding my kiteboard in the estuary this afternoon and returning to #edgewatersports. Always knew you were legends but this is above and beyond!

If everybody who is in favour of this followed and retweeted we’d reach a million followers by midnight and be much stronger together.

Upper limb course in December. Should be a great couple days getting see and do some of the rarer upper limb operations. #handsurgery #elbow

What a game! What a team! What a city! What a hip! So pleased for @ExeterChiefs. Kept fit and well by @PEOC_Exeter and @NHExeterHosp. Awesome win. Enjoy the evening team and get ready for the double. We’re coming for you @WaspsRugby! #exevrac #EuropeanCup 📸@shouldersurg @btsport

Something I’ve often wondered. At home I am persuaded to recycle the smallest plastic item, but at work where I generate 100 times more recyclable waste, we throw it away. Any surgeons up for a campaign? @BJSurgery @BjsOpen
This one of 3 bags of uncontaminated paper waste from ONE patient on my list today. FIVE more patients. 18 bags per list, we have 22 theatres.
Why does #NHS incinerate and not recycle?
What’s the carbon footprint of the World’s 5th largest employer?

Non-clinical NHS staff rarely get praised, but there will be thousands working over Christmas and the NHS would collapse if they weren’t there
Please RT if you haven’t forgotten about them

The countdown for the 'Secret Life of the Hospital: Revealed' has begun! Going behind the scenes at the RD&E, the documentary features areas that aren't usually seen & looks at how they keep our hospital functioning.
Tune in to @channel5_tv 5 at 9pm on the 31st October!

Thanks to Jonathan Howell @ExeterHipUnit for putting together an Exeter Orthopaedic Consultant strategic meeting today.
The strength of our unit comes from the great cohesion at PEOC.

This randomized clinical trial study declares the victory of arthroscopic capsular release over hydrodilatation injection in treatment of primary frozen shoulder. They showed better... jshoulderelbow.org/article/S…

This is a well done randomized controlled study comparing scope capsular release to hydrodilation in patients with idiopathic frozen shoulder. Both procedures significantly improved Oxford Sholder Score... jshoulderelbow.org/article/S…
