The Orthopaedic Trauma Society was launched in August 2013 at the Trauma Symposium.Our aim is to play a key role in maintaining and advancing the standards of orthopaedic trauma in the British Isles.
We will achieve this by being:
A forum for Orthopaedic Trauma surgery in the British Isles.
The focus for Orthopaedic Trauma research, training and education.
The organiser of scientific meetings on Orthopaedic Trauma.
The representative body for British Orthopaedic Trauma to Government, national bodies and organisations, and international organisations.
Day to day administration of the Orthopaedic Trauma Society is handled by Em Quad.
Please address all enquiries in the first instance to John Skliros.
Medico-Legal Enquiries
The Orthopaedic Trauma Society does not accept medico-legal enquiries under any circumstances.
Member Information
Under the terms and conditions of membership, the Orthopaedic Trauma Society has no mandate to divulge either personal information, or even confirmation of membership unless directed to do so by an order of the court. To do otherwise would constitute a breach of the Data Protection Act (2018).
Patient Confidentiality
You are hereby advised that, as a research-focused organisation with a voluntary membership, the OTS neither requires nor maintains HIPAA-compliant IT systems, and the Society holds no mandate to act on behalf of any member in medico-legal matters. Consequently, no confidential or patient-identifiable data should be sent to the Society under any circumstances. Any and all confidentiality notices appended to unsolicited communications are held to be invalid, and the Society retains the right to refer breaches of patient confidentiality arising from such unsolicited communications to the relevant professional body.
