Orthopaedics

Edinburgh was one of the first places in the UK to have an Orthopaedic and Trauma Centre.

The Edinburgh University Department of Orthopaedics and Trauma is based at the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh. It has clinical units for both elective and trauma orthopaedics.

Further Training

The education and training of our peers, as well as the next generation of surgeons, is a key part of what we do.  This includes our annual International Trauma Symposium and Edinburgh FRCS (Tr&Orth) Course
