President Message

The Annual General Meeting of Hong Kong Institute of Musculoskeletal Medicine was held on 23rd October 2011. It was my honour and privilege to be elected the President at the Annual General Meeting. Taking the benefit of the healthy foundation laid by the past council under the leadership of our Founding President, it would be a great challenge to the new council and myself to further develop and enhance the discipline, as well as to nurture the new musculoskeletal physicians.
