Orthopaedic Clinic
In August this clinic was transferred from Manor school to Ross
Ward at Barking Hospital, thus releasing classrooms badly need for
educational purposes and also providing far more adequate accommodation
for this expanding service.
Mr. L. Gillis, M.B.E., F.R.C.S., continues as the Consultant
Orthopaedic Surgeon and attends fortnightly.
Cases treated were:—
In hospital 6
In clinics or out-patient departments
As a result of arrangements made directly between the County
Council and the Regional Hospital Board, Mr. ogle, Remedial
Gymnast, was transferred to the Hospital Management Committee's
employ as from the beginning of the year. We have been fortunate
in securing an assurance that his assistance will be available as before,
and he has continued to give the necessary extra attention to the children
at Faircross School. Unfortunately, however, this move has made it
virtually impossible to extend his duties into the school in association
with the Advisors on Physical Education as envisaged in my last
report.
Skin Clinic
Dr. P. M. Deville, M.R.C.P., M.R.C.S., Consultant Dermatologist
now attends the Skin Clinic, Paget Ward, Barking Hospital, twice a
month.
