Mr Baird is a panel reviewer for a number of Urological journals, and a regular invited speaker at international events talking on Exstrophy/Epispadias, Adolescent Urology and Transitional Care.

Mr Baird regularly undertakes medicolegal cases in the areas of medical negligence (for plaintiff or defendant) and personal/accidental injury claims. His areas of specialist urological expertise are reconstructive urology, voiding dysfunction, adolescent urology and some areas of paediatric urology.
