About Nick Harris

I have been a Consultant Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgeon and Senior Clinical Lecturer at the Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust since August 2001. My areas of interest are Foot & Ankle Surgery, Knee Surgery, General Lower Limb Surgery as well as Trauma. I have produced over 90 original publications and presentations and am the author of a textbook on Orthopaedic Examination.

I am subspecialty trained in Foot & Ankle Surgery and am a member of BOFAS(British Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society).

In my current position approximately 90% of my elective practice is Foot & Ankle. A significant proportion of this is tertiary referral. I am a member of the European AES Total Ankle Replacement Faculty and European Arthrex Foot and Ankle Faculty. I act as a reviewer to the British Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery and the British Journal of Plastic Surgery. I am a convenor of the Foot and Ankle Masterclass run in conjunction with the Royal College of Surgeons. I also teach on the British Society of Rheumatology Foot and Ankle Course.

I also have an interest in knee surgery and was awarded the Aesculap Travelling Fellowship to visit Dr DuPlessis in South Africa. Dr DuPlessis is an internationally reknown knee surgeon and looks after the Springboks Rugby Team. I was awarded the BOTA Trainee of the Year Prize for research into pain relief following ACL reconstruction. I am a member of BASK.
