Mr Thomas Yeoman

Originating from Yorkshire I undertook my Orthopaedic training in Edinburgh and developed a keen interest in Hand and Wrist surgery. I undertook two fellowships at the prestigious Wrightington Upper limb unit before returning to Yorkshire with my young family as a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon in York Hospital.
