Mr Greg Pickering

I graduated from the University of Bristol with degrees in both Pharmacology and Medicine. Having completed my foundation training, I then spent time training in New Zealand, Australia and across the South Pacific. I returned to the UK, completing my higher specialist training in Trauma & Orthopaedics on the Severn (Bristol) Rotation. I was a very active member of the rotation and served as President of the Trainees’ Group during his final year. I completed my training as a National Training Interface Group Fellow in Hand Surgery, having ranked first in my application year, at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital and the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital in Birmingham. During this time I was the British Delegate to the American Society for Surgery of the Hand International Travelling Fellowship (visiting units including the Indiana Hand Centre, Harvard University, Massachusetts General Hospital, The University of Chicago and OrthoCarolina), as well completing the British Diploma in Hand Surgery. I have a particular interest in medical education and have multiple formal qualifications in this field. I continue to develop and deliver cadaveric surgical training courses, as well as being a supervisor and trainer of future orthopaedic and hand surgeons. I also maintains an active audit and research interest, I’m the local Principal Investigator for a number of National Randomised Controlled Trials, I lecture both nationally and internationally, as well maintaining a presence in the published literature.
