Professor Ciaran Bolger of Beaumont Hospital, Dublin, became the latest Visiting Professor to speak at an event organised by St George’s Trauma and Orthopaedics department.

Professor Bolger, who is Professor of Clinical Neuroscience at the Beaumont Hospital, is well respected in his field and St George’s was delighted to welcome him to speak at a meeting of our spinal multidisciplinary team.
