Episode 26: Knot to be missed - The RCOG surgical skills podcast | Building surgical futures

In this inspiring episode, hosts Hannah Pierce and Naomi Harvey are joined by Dr Amy Keightley to discuss how innovation, leadership, and ambition can transform surgical opportunities beyond tertiary centres. Working at Great Western Hospital, Dr Keightley shares her journey into gynaecological oncology, her experience in a unit-led gynae-oncology role, and how she established a CMR robotic surgery service within a district general hospital. She explores the challenges of introducing advanced technology in a non-tertiary setting and why access to complex surgery should not be limited by geography.
