introduction

This blog is intended as a resource and point of contact for orthopaedic fellows and trainees for accessing foot and ankle information. It is not intended as a point of referral for members of the public, nor is it to be seen as a definitive textbook.

It is being started by two friends and colleagues, Al Marsh and Al Dray, from UK and NZ respectively, as a way of posting high-pixel clinical photos for their registrars to view (rather than swamp individuals' emails with these large files), and post interesting cases/Xrays for discussion.
We hope it will grow in time to be a useful resource for trainees coming up to their final fellowship exams - the subspecialty area of Foot and Ankle is not always well-understood at this stressful time.

We make no undertaking to make regular posts, but hope that if it is successful it will gain a life of its own. The intention is to be helpful, but there is no substitute for doing your own reading/learning and seeking teaching from your consultants as you go.
