Will MasonConsultant in Trauma & Orthopaedics

Qualified 1997, Cambridge

 

 

 

 

Mr Mason is an Orthopaedic Surgeon with a specialist interest in hand, wrist and upper limb surgery.

I qualified in Cambridge and undertook my general surgical training in Bath, Bristol and Newport. My Orthopaedic training was in Southampton and at the end of this I had the opportunity to work in Sydney, Australia for a year's fellowship with Professor Tonkin specialising in hand surgery.

Apart from treating common hand, wrist and shoulder disorders I have an interest in children's hand disorders and the management of spasticity in the upper limb, including cerebral palsy. I also have an interest in hand injuries and have established a hand trauma clinic in Gloucester. All my clinics in Gloucester are attended by specialist hand therapists who provide important aftercare following hand surgery.
