FRCS (Tr&Orth) · Cambridge
A Surgeon Who Delivers Expert Opinion — Personally
I'm Mr. Peter Hull FRCS (Tr&Orth) — and for over two decades I have dedicated my surgical career to the most complex orthopaedic trauma cases in the country. When you instruct me for a medicolegal report, I personally assess, examine, and author every opinion. There is no delegation to junior colleagues.
I undertake all types of orthopaedic trauma surgery but have specialist training in pelvic and acetabular trauma, severe lower limb fractures, and polytrauma patients. My specialist orthopaedic training was undertaken in the West Midlands, and I undertook my fellowship at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre in Toronto — a world-renowned trauma centre — working with some of the most eminent trauma surgeons in the world.
I am currently the Lead Orthopaedic Trauma Surgeon at Cambridge University Hospital Major Trauma Centre. I write over 150 personal injury reports per annum, nearly all of which are high-value, polytrauma-type cases or severe limb injuries, including amputation cases.
I am regularly instructed by Band 1 London and national firms. I also prepare reports in cases of medical negligence and criminal law — and urgent appointments are available on request. My practice fits precisely with the medicolegal cases I assess, meaning my opinions are grounded in genuine, current clinical experience at the highest level.
