Mr. Tim Cresswell BM FRCS.Ed(Trauma and Orth) Dip.Orth.Eng
Thank you for visiting my website. I will try to keep this site up-to-date with current Upper Limb Surgery and have tried to focus useful links to sites that are relevant.
NEW - Latarjet website launched!
www.latarjet.net has been launched - it will aim to provide comprehensive information about the Cape Town Latarjet....
Shoulder, Elbow, Wrist and Hand...
I offer diagnosis and treatment of conditions that affect the whole of the upper limb including arthritis, nerve entrapment, rotator cuff tears, shoulder and elbow dislocations and wrist and hand conditions such as ganglia, carpal tunnel syndrome, trigger finger and Dupuytrens disease as well as trauma to the upper limb. My work covers general orthopaedics and trauma including knee and hip replacement.
I was appointed to the Derby Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust in 2006 after training in Sheffield and doing fellowships with Dr. Joe de Beer in Cape Town, with the Pulvertaft Hand Centre in Derby and with Dr. Hill Hastings II in Indianapolis in the USA. At present, I work at the Derbyshire Royal Infirmary (01332 347141 ext 2341) and at the Derby Nuffield Hospital (01332 540100).
This site is under constant review and if you cannot find what you need - just ask!
In the meantime you can reach me at 01332 347141 ext 2341 and by fax at 0870 2423003. I look forward to hearing from you. You can also contact me via the contact page.
