    Background Information 
    Professional profile:
    Miss Rachel Bright-Thomas finished her pre-clinical medical degree in Cambridge. She then moved to Oxford in 1990 to finish her clinical training and graduated from medical school in 1993. Rachel spent the next 13 years in Surgical training, largely in London teaching hospitals, before moving home to the West Midlands. She has always been interested in breast surgery and cancer surgery and as part of her higher surgical training she did a masters degree looking at the possibilities of gene therapy in the prevention and treatment of cancer. On the clinical front her penultimate year in training was spent in one of only 9 National Oncoplastic Breast Fellowships, learning how to use plastic surgical techniques to complement and enhance the results of breast cancer surgery. Rachel is fully trained in breast reconstruction and offers this as part of her regular NHS practice.

    In 2006 Rachel was appointed as a Consultant Breast and General Surgeon at Worcestershire Royal Hospital. Almost all of her elective work is breast surgery covering the range of procedures from small wire guided excisions to aesthetic surgery and most types of reconstructive surgery.
    Personal profile:
    Rachel is married with two young children. She enjoys spending time with her immediate and extended family and socialising with friends.
