Leicester SCRUBS is the student surgical and anaesthetic society at the University of Leicester. The society provides any medical student with an interest in pursuing a career in surgery or anaesthetics a good head start, by holding revision sessions in the surgical aspects of the course from the anatomy in year 1 all the way through to finals.
Here at SCRUBS we are all very passionate about surgery and strive to provide the best opportunities for our members to learn more about this and help them bulid their CV. We have some exclusive benifits for our members which are underlined below. This is not to say that non-members can also get invloved in our events but there may be a small fee for some events.

We work in partnership with the Royal College of Surgeons of England and various other organisations to offer our members various benifits and opportunities including:
- Career talks
