Background Information

Professional profile:

My areas of interest include all aspects of benign gynaecology including pelvic pain, endometriosis, prolapse, ovarian cysts, menstrual irregularities, fibroids, and colposcopy (abnormal smears).

I have a keen interest in vaginal and laparoscopic surgeries for benign conditions. I’ve had extensive training in minimal access surgery both in UK and abroad including a fellowship in advanced laparoscopic surgery from France.

As I perform most of my surgeries (>90% hysterectomies) as key hole procedures it has huge benefits to patients including reduced infection rates, minimal scars and much quicker recovery.
