Harold Jalland Stiles became a Fellow of the College in 1889 and during the next three years carried out studies of the surgical anatomy of the breast and of the pathology of breast cancer, which brought him international recognition. In 1895 he was appointed assistant surgeon to the Edinburgh Royal Infirmary, and in 1898 became surgeon to the Royal Hospital for Sick Children, Edinburgh.

On the outbreak of the First World War in 1914, Stiles was appointed consultant surgeon to the army in Scotland. His outstanding achievements in the care and rehabilitation of the war wounded earned him a knighthood and his appointment to the Edinburgh University Regius Chair of Clinical Surgery. Among many honours and distinctions were his appointment as surgeon to King George V in Scotland and his presidency of the College, which he held from 1923–1925.
