About Mr Nicholas Hancock
Mr Nicholas Hancock qualified in medicine in 1998 and spent the early part of his career working in renowned major trauma centres at Groote Schuur and Tygerberg Hospitals in South Africa, where he gained extensive experience managing complex orthopaedic injuries.

During this fellowship, he also developed advanced expertise in modern hip and knee surgery techniques while working at Concord Repatriation General Hospital, University of Sydney.
He has been director of the Orthopaedic Department in Southampton for 5 years and works with the University and Deanery. He has been awarded Orthopaedic Trainer of the Year more than once and regularly publishes book chapters and papers in peer reviewed journals.
