Visiting surgeons can learn meniscal transplant technique from Ian McDermott

As part of the ‘Hospital Innovations Centre of Excellence’ award, Ian McDermott, of London Sports Orthopaedics and London Bridge Hospital, has been designated as a training centre for surgeons wanting to learn how to do meniscal transplantation.

Jon Smith, a surgeon from Leeds, visited Ian this week in surgery at London Bridge Hospital. Jon watched Ian do a combined meniscal transplant and ACL reconstruction. Ian was delighted to meet Jon and provide the training. Jon looks to be thrilled at the experience, according to his twitter post!

Any orthopaedic surgeons wishing to visit London and learn techniques for meniscal allograft surgery with Ian, please contact Ian’s secretary Frankie on mcdermott@sportsortho.co.uk
