Special Clinical Interest(s)

I offer a range of breast reconstructive surgery including Tissue-expander/ direct to implant reconstruction, Latissimus Dorsi flap and TRAM flap reconstruction as well as augmentation or breast reduction on the normal side to achieve symmetry as part of the overall reconstructive "package" for women. I also undertake prophylactic surgery for women with inherited BRCA 1 or 2 gene for risk reduction. I offer specialist consultation for women with new or ongoing breast concerns.

As a General Surgeon, I routinely perform Laparoscopic cholecystectomy, open hernia operations, varicose veins surgery, Upper and lower GI Endoscopy and minor procedures. I welcome an opportunity to provide care for your patients and also look forward to meeting my General Practitioner colleagues in person in the near future.
