Dr Arif Hussenbux
Consultant Gastroenterologist
MBBS, BSc (Hons), FRCP
I am a Consultant Gastroenterologist based in Buckinghamshire with specialist registration in gastroenterology and hepatology. I have considerable expertise in interventional endoscopy and hepatopancreaticobiliary medicine. I take care to offer a relaxed consultation where patients are provided ample time to express all of their concerns.
I perform a wide range of therapeutic and diagnostic endoscopy including gastroscopy, colonoscopy, polypectomy, endoscopic ultrasound, ERCP (endoscopy of the bile duct), stent insertion and stricture dilatation.
I specialise in general gastroenterology with specific interests in abdominal pain, change in bowel habit, gastro-oesophageal reflux, liver, biliary and pancreatic disorders.
I have performed diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy on a daily basis for over five years.
I was the first person in the country to achieve Joint Advisory Group on GI Endoscopy (JAG) accreditation in endoscopic ultrasound and ERCP.
I qualified from Barts and the London in 2014 where I was awarded the Goldberg-Schachmann and Freda Becker Bursary for exceptionally high academic ranking. I underwent specialist training in Oxford where I provided an active role within the British Society of Gastroenterology as the regional trainee representative. Post-training, I was awarded the internationally renowned advanced hepatopancreaticobiliary medicine fellowship at St James's University Hospital in Leeds.
I understand the gastrointestinal tract is unique to each patient and I aim to provide patient centred care for general gastroenterology related conditions. Alongside my medical degree, I have a Bachelor of Science in Sport and Exercise Medicine, therefore recognising the importance of fitness and nutrition to our overall gut health.
