His Royal Highness Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, was the husband and consort of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. In 1953 he became an honorary fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of England.
His Royal Highness visited the College on two occasions. On 7 November 1962 he accompanied Her Majesty on a visit to formally open the newly completed College buildings, which had been extended and renovated after being damaged in the Second World War. During the visit, he received a donation from the College for the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Scheme.
On 21 November 1989 His Royal Highness again visited the College with Her Majesty the Queen. During their visit they toured the Hunterian Museum and College Library, signed the visitors’ book and met council members in the council room.
