I have been a consultant colorectal and general surgeon for 15 years with my primary practice at Luton & Dunstable Hospital in Bedfordshire.

I am a specialist in keyhole surgery for bowel cancer, diverticular disease and hernia surgery. I also treat all coloproctology conditions including haemorrhoids, fistulas, fissures and pilonidal sinus surgery. I perform advanced lower gastrointestinal endoscopy.

I specialise in keyhole and open groin hernia surgery (inguinal, umbilical, femoral and spigelian) as well as complex incisional hernia surgery.

I am a fully trained and accredited bowel surgeon with expertise in the surgical management of colon and rectal cancer, inflammatory bowel diseases (Crohns and ulcerative colitis) and surgery for diverticular disease.

I offer treatments for anal tags and haemorrhoids (Excisional surgery, THD procedure and Rafaelo) fistula treatment (Lay-open, Seton, LIFT and laser FiLAC surgery), treatment of fissures and pilonidal sinus surgery.

I am an accredited endoscopist and perform colonoscopy (including polypectomy) and flexible sigmoidoscopy.

To date, as a consultant, I have performed over 650 bowel resection procedures for cancer and non-cancer related conditions, 350 haemorrhoid procedures, over 700 hernia repairs and over 2500 lower GI endoscopies.

I trained at St Marys Hospital, London and then completed a fellowship at John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford. I was Clinical Director for surgery at Luton & Dunstable Hospital for three years, and was the Director of the Undergraduate Training program.

I am currently an MRCS examiner for the Royal College of Surgeons of England. By November 2025, I will have completed my training for robotic colorectal and general surgery.

I am married and live with my two young children in Stanmore. I love spending as much time as possible with my children, taking them swimming and playing football. I personally enjoy all forms of sport, especially football, cricket, tennis and golf. I have a passion for travel and enjoy scuba diving when the opportunity arises. I also enjoy reading, whether medical literature or current affairs.
