is a group of 9 local Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeons, who have joined forces in order to offer a comprehensive service for patients with bone, joint and sports injury problems.

BOSS is able to offer prompt, expert assessment and planned treatment for all orthopaedic conditions from the elite sportsmen, to "weekend warriors" as well as "wear and tear" problems.

A full range of orthopaedic surgery is offered including keyhole surgery (arthroscopy) for the hip, knee, ankle and shoulder.

The philosophy of BOSS is to minimise the loss of function to allow an early return to activity.
