The History Of Surgery In Spain
by Dr Rob Feneck
This talk will cover the period of the second millenium until the Spanish civil war and the introduction of basic surgery and the introduction of modern anaesthesia.


Dr Rob Feneck qualified in 1974 and spent his clinical career in the field of anaesthesia for cardiac surgery and critical care. He worked in London, chiefly at Guys and St. Thomas’ hospitals. He was elected Fellow of the European Society of Cardiology in 2008. He retired in 2016 to pursue his interest in the history of medicine.
He is currently a volunteer with the Heritage section at the Association of Anaesthetists and gives regular lectures, guided museum visits and walking tours.
