The British Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society

is a society of orthopaedic surgeons who have a special interest in surgery of the foot and ankle. Its purposes include

  • To encourage interest in foot and ankle surgery among orthopaedic surgeons
  • To encourage both basic science and clinical research in foot and ankle surgery
  • To contribute to postgraduate training and continuing medical education
  • To represent foot and ankle surgeons in the British Orthopaedic Association and to other professional and health-related bodies
  • To encourage links with foot and ankle surgeons in other countries

The Society holds an annual Scientific meeting and Instructional Course which is open to all doctors with an interest in the foot and ankle. Surgeons from Europe and the USA are usually represented. The best paper, from a trainee, presented at the Scientific Meeting is awarded the Chen Memorial Prize.

The Society is affiliated to the British Orthopaedic Association and to the European Foot and Ankle Society. It also promotes joint international meetings with other surgical foot and ankle societies.

This site is aimed partly at orthopaedic surgeons and other professionals involved in the care of people with foot and ankle problems, and partly at the general public. Pages aimed at the general public can be found on the menu bar to the left of this page. See the professional section index for pages aimed at foot and ankle professionals.
