About me
Mr William Dunnet completed his basic medical training at Cambridge University Medical School and Guy's Hospital. His interest in knee surgery developed during his general training at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital, Stanmore and King's College Hospital, London.
After Mr Dunnet completed his general orthopaedic training he spent one year in Australia studying at the Institute of Orthopaedics in Melbourne and the North Sydney Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine Centre; both units specialised in reconstructive and replacement surgery of the knee. Working with the premiership Australian Rules players gave him insight into the special demands of the elite athlete.
Mr Dunnet completed his training in the Hand unit at the Queen Victoria Hospital, East Grinstead. The Queen Victoria hospital, East Grinstead is renowned for the pioneering work performed upon the World War 2 fighter pilots (the Guinea Pig club).
Mr Dunnet was one of the first surgeons to introduce the arthroscopic assisted hamstring Anterior Cruciate ligament (ACL) into East Kent in 1999. He has published on ACL reconstruction and more recently on patello femoral instability which is his current research interest.
Above all else Mr Dunnet values the importance of ensuring that every patient feels relaxed and at ease during the consultation. He gives sufficient time to every patient to ensure they understand their orthopaedic condition and can make an informed contribution to the successful management of their condition.
