About
Jim Carmichael is a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon specialising in disorders of the foot and ankle. He was appointed as a substantive consultant in the NHS in 2010 to Peterborough and Stamford NHS foundation trust (now North-West Anglia NHS Foundation trust). His clinical practice covers all surgery of the foot, ankle. He is involved in research and development, teaching and practice development and has been awarded 2 Clinical Excellence Awards for his work in developing the North West Anglian Diabetic Foot Service. He is currently the Associate Divisional Director for Surgery at the North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust.
In addition to his local positions, he is also on the Educational Committee of the British Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (BOFAS) and is senior faculty with the International Bone Research Association (IBRA) based in Basel, Switzerland. He has worked extensively with BOFAS as part of the Ankle arthritis working group, developing guidance and strategy for the management of ankle arthritis and is one of the founding members of the East Midlands Ankle Arthritis Network.
Jim grew up and went to school locally. He completed his surgical training on the south coast before undertaking fellowships at the North Sydney Orthopaedic and Sports Injury Clinic under Dr David Wood and Dr Merv Cross. On return to the UK he then undertook a further fellowship under Mr James Calder at the Clinic for Foot and Ankle Surgery and Chelsea and Westminster Hospital before returning to the Peterborough area to take up his consultant position.
