The crest features John of Arderne (1307–1392), a medieval surgeon from Newark and the “father of coloproctology”, representing the evolution of the ACPGBI from its origins in the Section. This was based on an Elizabethan depiction of the trade, see below, which was proposed as a crest, but was 'censored' in the final grant by removing the patient. The College of Arms described the left index finger as “imbrued” (stained), and did not specify of where it had actually been. | The crest features John of Arderne (1307–1392), a medieval surgeon from Newark and the “father of coloproctology”, representing the evolution of the ACPGBI from its origins in the Section.
