Great experience to be interviewed by my sister and Podcast extraordinaire, @AoifinnDevitt, on @Fiftyfacespod. A little of reflection every now and again is good to appreciate those who inspire us! nam12.safelinks.protection.o… – at Dublin City, Ireland
The modified Ellison lateral extra-articulated augmentation procedure is a very simple to perform, effective technique that avoids any potential tunnel convergence in the lateral femoral condyle and over-constraint of the lateral compartment: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3123…
This work is a modification of the Ellison lateral extra-articular tenodesis as an augmentation in high-risk #ACLreconstructions. Read more ow.ly/mhMO50G87ft

The clinical role of #Kaplanfibers of the #iliotibialband in rotational #knee stability seems less evident than in biomechanical studies.

Wonderful to see the key messages of our recent paper is a novel, yet very engaging format! This represents a trilogy of studies from @OrthoSportVic @OSVResearchUnit on the role #kaplanfibers in #aclinjury. There’s more to come! @jfosv @DrKateWebster @AJSM_SportsMed

What a great way to celebrate St Patrick’s day☘️☘️! I think it calls for a pint of Guinness later to recognise the day and toast the publication of my final PhD study! @AOSSM_SportsMed @OrthoSportVic@OSVResearchUnit #guinnessforgoodness #kaplanfibers
Happy Women’s day to the three most important women in my life! #girldad #theworldisyouroyster
Nice work Richard Napier! Great to finally see this paper published. A consistent, well done pivot-shift examination is so important and its value should not be underestimated! @OJSM_SportsMed @jfosv @DrKateWebster @OrthoSportVic @feller_julian @OSVResearchUnit
The pivot-shift examination is a key component in the clinical diagnosis of ACL injury. However, the grading of this test is notoriously subjective. Surely, we can do better with the aid of technology? Perhaps not! See our latest study - bit.ly/2P5NoKV #ACLinjury #KIRA

So true and rarely spoken about. Makes a huge mental impact as the surgeon in charge. I am very lucky to have very supportive colleagues in all aspects of my practice.
Recent study affirms that there is a negative emotional impact of prosthetic joint infection on surgeons. Receiving peer support was regarded as the most important coping strategy ow.ly/Ejxv50Dnvz9 #infection #surgeons #surgery #orthopedics #orthotwitter
What a great day yesterday! Celebrating the award of my PhD with my supervisor @DrKateWebster and my family! A very special thanks to my other supervisor and mentor @feller_julian and the team at @OSVResearchUnit and @OrthoSportVic for all the support and encouragement!
