Mr Avi Das
Consultant Hand and Wrist Surgeon
MBBS BSc FRCS(Orth)
Specialises in
I am a Consultant Hand and Wrist Surgeon at Queens Medical Centre, Nottingham University Hospitals, and currently the Orthopaedic Clinical Lead for the Nottingham Hand Unit. My specialist practice at this University Hospital and regional Major Trauma centre is focused entirely on Hand and Wrist surgery, covering the breadth of trauma and elective disorders.
I offer consultations for the breadth of hand and wrist disorders, specialising in treating carpal tunnel syndrome, cubital tunnel syndrome, trigger finger, Dupuytren's disease, painful arthritis in the wrist, thumb and finger joints, problems post injury and problematic lumps and bumps in the hand and wrist.
I graduated from Imperial College London, with distinction in clinical sciences, in 2008. Following early years post graduate foundation and core surgical training in London and Cambridge, I commenced my higher surgical training in Trauma and Orthopaedics in the East Midlands (Nottingham Rotation). Alongside my training, I visited internationally renowned hand units such as the Harvard Hand Service in the USA and the Ganga Hand Department in India, a premier institute specialising in hand trauma reconstruction. I completed my higher specialist training with a competitive nationally appointed advanced Orthoplastic Hand fellowship.
I am a member of the British Society for Surgery of the Hand and regularly engage in meetings and conferences to maintain my professional development and uphold evidence based practice. I am also an Assigned Educational Supervisor for surgical trainees at the Nottingham Hand Unit.
