Descriere Faces from the Front: Harold Gillies, the Queen's Hospital, Sidcup and the Origins of Modern Plastic Surgery - Andrew Bamji

Bamji, Andrew: - Andrew Bamji studied Medicine in London and worked as a consultant physician in rheumatology and rehabilitation at Queen Mary's Hospital, Sidcup from 1983 to 2011. As consultant archivist of the hospital from 1989 onwards, Bamji acquired the case files of the British and New Zealand Sections who worked at Sidcup during the First World War. These 2,500 files are some of the only surviving clinical records from this conflict and include surgical notes, diagrams, x-rays and watercolours. These records fuelled Bamji's interest in the history of plastic surgery and the work of the Queen's Hospital, Sidcup. His publications include 'Facial surgery: The patients' experience' in Hugh Cecil and Peter H. Liddle, Facing Armageddon: The First World War Experienced (Barnsley: Pen & Sword Books, 1996) and 'Facial surgery, rehabilitation and the impact of medical specialisation' in Peter H. Liddle (ed.), The Widening War: The Central Years of the Great War (Barnsley: Pen & Sword Books, 2016). Bamji has lectured to medical and lay audiences in the United Kingdom, the United States, France and New Zealand, and his research has informed many television programmes and exhibitions - including at the Royal College of Surgeons, the National Army Museum and the Tate Gallery.
