ALICE BREMNER-SMITH

Welcome to the website of Ms Alice Bremner-Smith, Consultant Hand and Wrist Surgeon.

With over 16 years experience and a supporting team of dedicated hand therapists I am committed to providing excellence in Hand and Wrist medical care.

This website provides information about myself and my professional practice aswell as access to data on medical and surgical conditions of the hand and wrist

WHO AM I?

I am a highly experienced Hand and Wrist Surgeon. I have worked as a Consultant in London in both NHS and Private Practice since 2004. My practice covers adult Hand and Wrist conditions exclusively and is based at the Regional Hand and Wrist Unit, Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Trust where I was Lead Clinician for several years and remain an active Consultant.

I am an Honorary Senior Lecturer at Imperial College London, a trainer and examiner for the British Diploma of Hand Surgery, a member of the British Hand Society National audit committee and an active member of the British Society for Surgery of the Hand. I am the principal investigator for the DISC Trial for Dupuytrens Disease of the hand, Chelsea.

I offer private appointments through the The Fortius Clinic, Marylebone, King William Street, and Wimbledon, The Lister Hospital, Chelsea, The Chelsea Outpatient Centre, Kings Road and the Chiswick Medical Centre, Chiswick.

I am a firm believer in non-surgical treatments and try to avoid operations if alternative treatments will produce the same or better results.

My work is closely intertwined with an experienced team of Hand Therapists to maximise non-operative treatments and provide bespoke rehabilitation for rapid return to function following injury or surgery.

''Thank you for everything you have done for me over the past few years. Your patience, professionalism and support have meant more to me than I can ever put in writing! I look forward to returning to sports very soon and it is all very much down to your perseverance and dedication''

SURGICAL CARE

Specialist experience

I have 16 years of 'hands on' surgical experience at

Consultant level in London. After completing my surgical training in the UK I gained specialist international experience working at the Institut de la Main (Paris), Royal North Shore Hand Unit (Sydney, Australia), and Oxford Hand and Wrist Unit. I was awarded the Pulvertaft Fellowship and trained further with national leaders David Evans at The Windsor Hand Clinic and Professor Rolfe Birch at the Peripheral Nerve Unit, Stanmore.

I work hard to keep abreast of new developments by regularly attending meetings and liaising with numerous colleagues in the UK and abroad. I have your best interests at heart and will refer you on to a colleague if I believe your condition is more suited to their experience.

Over the years I have treated more than 14,000 private patients with Hand and Wrist Conditions and many more than this in the National Health Service including elite athletes, professional musicians and performing artists. I look forward to using this experience to provide for you the best possible medical care.
