Abstract
As the victor records his version of history, so I accept the privilege to discuss my version of a history of knee surgery.
I would like to share my experiences of the Australian Knee Society—the concept and founders, the characters, and the benefits to me as a regional specialist.
I have, of course, some favourite hobby horses and I will develop some of these involving clinical topics—arthroscopy, ligament arthroplasty and patella surgery—as part of a discussion of my personal journey to finding a balance and personal happiness, and an empathetic approach to orthopaedic practice.
