I have a specific interest in Day Case Hip Replacements and after visiting Copenhagen in August 2018 set up a programme in Fife leading to the first successful planned Day Case replacement being performed in Scotland in November of that year. Since then we have hosted several visits from other Health Boards to learn the technique and offer support and guidance.
