I have been a Consultant Upper Gastrointestinal Surgeon at the Norfolk and Norwich for 25 years and am an expert in surgery of oesophageal and gastric cancers, laparoscopic and bariatric (weight loss) surgery.
At Spire Norwich I have been performing weight loss surgery for over 14 years together with our dedicated multidisciplinary team. I also specialise in laparoscopic surgery for gallstones, hiatus hernia, and abdominal hernias, together with local anaesthetic inguinal hernia repair.
To date I have performed over 3,000 cholecystectomies, over 2,000 inguinal hernia repairs, 340 bariatric operations and over 550 major oesophago-gastric cancer operations in both my NHS and private practice.
