Miss Morgan Bailey graduated from Cardiff Medical School in 2011 and trained across London, Oxford and Wessex. She completed a paediatric orthopaedic fellowship at University Hospital Southampton. She also completed a research fellowship for the British Association for Surgery of the Knee, with a focus on patellofemoral pathology, for which she was awarded the British Association for Surgery of the Knee President’s Award in 2022.
She works at Southampton Children’s Hospital and Portsmouth University Hospitals, managing the full spectrum of knee pathology in under-18s. She provides an acute knee service for children across both sites and works closely with physiotherapists within the hospitals and the community to provide multidisciplinary care for children with knee problems.
Morgan’s main research interest is in Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injuries in women and teenage girls. She chairs the Women’s ACL Orthopaedic Steering Group, a national group linked with the British Orthopaedic Association and the British Association for Surgery of the Knee, which aims to increase the evidence base relating to ACL injuries and their management in this patient group.
Miss Bailey is a trustee for the charity Power Up to Play, an injury prevention charity advocating an evidence-based warm-up to reduce serious knee injuries in children. She works closely with local sports clubs to support injury prevention and also works with a national strategy group targeting injury prevention.
