Dr. Darrell Ogilvie-Harris is an MB, FRCSC and graduated with honours in Chemical Biology at the University of Liverpool, England in 1976. A second degree in Liverpool, then a third degree upon immigrating to Canada, resulted in Dr. Ogilvie-Harris becoming a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons Canada in 1981. He completed his residency at University Health Network the same year and was appointed Associate Professor at University of Toronto in 1998. U of T established the first formal training program orthopaedic surgery and has become renowned for this training and for pioneering advances made in the specialty. Orthopaedic surgeons from around the world visit Toronto both to learn and to teach.
Dr. Ogilvie-Harris’ research focus and subspecialties involve sports medicine and arthroscopic reconstructive surgery. An arthroscope is a thin fibre optic scope that allows surgeons to see inside areas where ligaments are damaged. In some cases, surgical repair can be done while using the scope. Dr. Ogilvie-Harris’ clinical approach to research is “bench to bedside” – he takes findings from his lab to his patients, applying his knowledge and surgical expertise to diagnosing and treating injuries resulting from sports activities.
