MCh (Orth) Alumni returns to lecture

Mr Amit Putti, an MCh (Orth) graduate from 2005, returned to the University Department of Orthopaedic & Trauma Surgery (UDOTS), on November 6th, 2019, to lecture on ‘Principles and Management of Proximal Humeral Fractures’ to this year’s students.

Mr Putti is a Consultant Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgeon working at Forth Valley Royal Hospital and at BMI Kings Park Hospital, Stirling. He graduated in 1999 and completed his Orthopaedic Residency in India. He completed his Masters in Orthopaedic Surgery (MCh Orth) from the University of Dundee in 2004-2005. His Orthopaedic Registrar training was done at NHS Tayside and he did his further specialist upper limb fellowship at the University Hospital of North Tees. He specialises in complex upper limb trauma and his elective practise is entirely upper limb treating conditions of the shoulder, elbow, hand and wrist.

Mr Arpit Jariwala, Director of UDOTS, stated:

“I know Amit well from his training days as he trained with me in NHS Tayside and it is so nice of him to be able to take the time and to come and share his experience with the MCh (Orth) students. The feedback has been excellent and it just shows the quality of teaching we offer our students but also how the MCh (Orth), Dundee, has helped shape the careers of many orthopaedic surgeons, including Amit who is an Alumnus from the department.”
