Specialises in
I am the Lead Oncoplastic Breast Surgeon at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Birmingham. My specialist area is exclusively breast disease, breast cancer surgery and all breast related problems. As an Oncoplastic Surgeon, I integrate plastic surgery techniques into breast cancer surgery to preserve and enhance aesthetical outcomes without compromising disease control.
I completed the prestigious National Oncoplastic Fellowship in Manchester under the tutorage of leading Plastic and Reconstructive Breast Surgeons. This fellowship, 1 of only 9 GMC recognised posts in the country, was carried out at the UK's largest screening breast unit.
I trained at several prestigious international units: Harvard Medical & Dana Faber (Boston, USA), Institut Curie (Paris), The Christie and UHSM. I was awarded the Ronald Raven Award from the Royal College of Surgeons and gained the highest marks at the European Breast Surgery exams in Austria.
My research includes risk-reducing surgery and familial breast cancer. My research doctorate (MD) investigated Contralateral Breast Cancer in high-risk patients (including BRCA1/2 carriers). I publish and present work at a national and international level. I am an active trainer, teaching plastic and breast surgeons at a national and local level.
