Representatives from the consultant surgeons’ team at Lorn and Islands Hospital recently welcomed delegates from the Viking Surgeons Association to the Corran Halls in Oban for their annual conference. The Viking Surgeons Association is a group of remote and rural surgeons who work in general hospitals in the Highlands and Islands of Scotland, rural areas of Northern Ireland, the Faroe Islands, the Isle of Man and Iceland.
The association is open to surgeons working in any remote and rural geographical location that were reached by the Vikings, including coastal areas of England.
