BSc, MBChB, MSc, MRCP, FRCR, DPhil Radiobiology
I have extensive experience in the management of acutely unwell patients with a weekly session dedicated to "Acute Oncology".
I graduated with a BSc from Birmingham University. I then completed an Intercalated BSc in the History of Medicine at University College London, before training as a Physician in the West Midlands. On deciding to specialise in Oncology I completed my training at the Royal Free Hospital, London and then as a Specialist Registrar in Clinical Oncology on the Oxford Clinical Oncology training scheme.
I am the malignant spinal cord compression clinical lead at the Royal Berkshire Hospital, Reading. I am a core member of the Upper Gastrointestinal Cancer Multi Disciplinary teams at the Royal Berkshire Hospital, Reading and Wexham Park Hospital, Slough. I have a strong working relationship with the Oxford Oesophago-gastric and Hepato-biliary MDT.
Some of the principal treatments carried out by Dr Esme Hill at Spire include:
MBChB / London / 2001
Intercalated BSc in the History of Medicine
I completed an original research project for my MSc in Oncology on the role of PET-CT in the pre-operative staging of gastric cancer.
I spent three years as a Clinical Research Fellow at the Gray Institute of Radiation Oncology and Biology, part of the University of Oxford, undertaking independent research towards a higher research qualification (DPhil) in Radiobiology. The clinical element of the research explored the role of perfusion imaging to measure tumour vascular parameters in response to radiotherapy given before or alongside radio-sensitising drugs in the context of two radiotherapy clinical trials in colorectal cancer. I have also managed a phase II trial in chem-radiotherapy for locally advanced pancreatic cancer.
