Mr Mo Salhab
Consultant Oncoplastic Breast Surgeon
MD, MS, PG Dip , FRCS (Gen Sur)
I completed my medical degree (MD) in 1996, followed by advanced surgical training in the United Kingdom. I then undertook specialised oncoplastic breast surgery training in leading centres across London, Yorkshire, Paris, and Brussels. In 2011, I was awarded a Master of Surgery (MS) from the University of London for my research in breast cancer molecular biology.
I am board-certified in breast cosmetic surgery by the Royal College of Surgeons and hold a Postgraduate Diploma in Oncoplastic Breast Surgery from the University of East Anglia, completed over a two-year programme. I have published extensively on breast cancer and have presented my work at national and international conferences.
In 2013, I received my Certificate of Completion of Training (CCT) and was appointed as a Consultant Breast Surgeon at Bradford Teaching Hospitals. I am a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of England and a member of the Association of Breast Surgery.
I specialise in the diagnosis, treatment, and surgical management of various breast conditions, focusing on both health and aesthetics.
My expertise includes:
- Management of benign breast conditions and common concerns
- Family history and risk assessment for breast cancer
- Screening, diagnosis, and treatment of breast cancer
- Breast reconstruction, including advanced oncoplastic techniques
- Cosmetic breast surgery, including augmentation, reduction and lifts
- Correction of breast abnormalities and deformities
- Treatment for male breast conditions, including gynecomastia
I offer personalised care, tailored to each patient’s needs; combining clinical expertise with an aesthetic approach to help achieve the best possible outcomes.
I have managed more than 3,000 breast cancer cases and performed over 1,000 cosmetic and reconstructive breast procedures, covering the full spectrum of breast surgery.
My practice includes advanced breast cancer surgery, with expertise in lumpectomies, mastectomies (including skin- and nipple-sparing techniques), and axillary surgery — always aiming to balance oncological safety with optimal cosmetic outcomes.
In breast reconstruction, I offer a range of implant-based and autologous options, including therapeutic mammoplasties and immediate reconstruction using acellular dermal matrices. As a board-certified surgeon in cosmetic breast surgery, I also perform breast augmentation, reduction and mastopexy, providing a personalised natural look.
