Professional profile

I am a Consultant Surgeon at St George's Hospital. I am the lead Upper GI Surgeon at St George's and I developed the South Thames Bariatric Service, which is the preferred provider for NHS bariatric (weight loss) surgery in the region.

I trained in London and Australia, where I trained in upper GI surgery, liver transplant, hepatobiliary surgery and laparoscopic surgery. My NHS and private practice spans a range of laparoscopic and open general surgery. I have a particular interest in laparoscopic gastric banding, sleeve gastrectomy, Roux en Y gastric bypass, laparoscopic cholecystectomy, laparoscopic and open hernia repairs. I perform anti-reflux surgery, such as laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication and surgery for achalasia for local and regional patients.

I have published on the management of biliary injuries following cholecystectomy, unusual hernias such as interparietal hernias and also follow-up of hernia repairs performed with pre-peritoneal techniques. I perform cholecystectomy and hernia repairs as a day-case when appropriate and use non-diathermy techniques such as Ultracision Harmonic Scalpel to avoid electrical conduction complications in laparoscopic surgery.
