Specialises in
After qualifying in Leeds in 1984, I trained in general and vascular surgery in Leeds and Manchester before being appointed as a Consultant General & Vascular Surgeon at Burnley General Hospital in 1998. Two years later I was invited to join the Regional Vascular Unit as a Consultant Vascular Surgeon, and I have now worked as a pure vascular surgeon at the South Manchester Teaching Hospital (UHSM) for 10 years.
In 2003 I set up the NHS satellite vascular service for Macclesfield and now single-handedly deliver the Macclesfield District General Hospital service, with a weekly clinic.
I am also Programme Director for Quality of Core Surgery Training, North West Deanery. I am passionate about training junior doctors and am in charge of assessments for all junior surgeons in every surgical specialty in all hospitals in the North West.
I perform all these roles and maintain a full clinical timetable, I am committed to excellence in the assessment and management of vascular disease. I have also written a number of research papers in the field of vascular disease.
Some of the principal treatments carried out by Mr Mark Welch at Spire include:
COVID-19 testing or antibody tests are not available as a standalone service at Spire Regency Hospital Macclesfield.
