SurgSoc caters for anyone who is interested in surgery. It doesn't matter whether you have a passing interest, just want to pass the surgical OSCE’s, or indeed if you have your future career as a world renowned cardiothoracic surgeon planned out. We welcome you all and we want to hear from you!
We have lots of events coming up this year, from clinical skills to plastering workshops, from careers talks to London trips to socials, the list goes on. If there’s an event we haven’t thought of which you want to see happen, get in touch and we’ll see what we can do.
