"The reason that I volunteer for the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh, is because I want to give something back.
"I was able to learn, progress and become a skilled surgeon because of the patience, knowledge, innovation and altruism of surgeons who came before me. The College mission from its establishment in 1505, has been to lead in; education, examinations, assessment, professional standards and in the advancement of surgery. Building upon these traditional foundations whilst also encouraging cutting edge innovation, delivery and leadership in these key roles, is me giving something back."
