An Tir Chirurgeons' Guild

Chirurgeon's Regalia

The badge of the Office of the Chirurgeon, registered in January of 1992, is blazoned: "Gules, on a goutte argent a fleam gules." As the Chirurgeonate operates as a guild, Chirurgeon's are designated by one of three ranks; Apprentice, Journeyman, and Master. There is also a fourth honorary rank of Chirurgeon Emeritus.
