Mr Barnabas Green
Barnabas ‘Barney’ Green works as a consultant vascular surgeon at South Tees Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. His clinical duties cover the full gamut of vascular conditions in addition to contributing to surgical support for major trauma. He served as Regional Surgical Advisor for the RCSEd in the Northeast of England and is now Deputy Director of the Network. Of note, he has convened two hugely successful trauma skills days on the Domestic Terror Attack, and more recently, Violent Crime and Surgery.
Barney is the Clinical Lead for Safer Surgery at South Tees Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and, having recently stood down as the Quality Lead for Postgraduate Medical Education in his Trust, he continues his commitment to teaching and training to both undergraduates and postgraduates. As part of this role he convenes the Newcastle Surgical Training Centre’s Advanced Cadaveric Vascular Skills course. Barney is involved in research, including a multinational, multimillion Euro research project into revolutionising amputees prostheses, but when it’s all said and done he would much rather spend time with his family, eating good food, climbing mountains and riding bikes with them!
