ORTHOPAEDIC CLINIC.
Mr. R. H. Maudsley, F.R.C.S., Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon reports:
Mr. A. R. Taylor, F.R.C.S. (Senior Orthopaedic Registrar jointly between
Heatherwood Hospital, Ascot, and the Royal Free Hospital) has attended the Hampton
Wick Orthopaedic Clinic on the 4th Monday afternoon of each month.
Over the past year the Clinics have tended to become smaller and fewer new cases
have been referred. The work consists mainly of foot and knee problems; mostly
valgus conditions of the knees and feet, requiring little or no treatment other than
reassurance.
The figures are as follows:
New Cases: Pre-school children 14
School children 14
Old Cases: Prcschool children 52
Schoolchildren 112
192
The responsibility for the Clinic has now passed to Mr. Malcolm Swann who was
appointed Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon in May, 1967, but by general agreement
between the Board and ourselves, our Senior Registrar will for the time being continue
to attend.
