I am an experienced Laparoscopic Upper Gastrointestinal Surgeon based in Manchester. I have been a Consultant Surgeon for the past eight years. I provide private treatment for problems related to Gastro-oesophageal Reflux (fundoplication surgery), gallbladder (laparoscopic cholecystectomy), inguinal /groin hernia repair (laparoscopic and open), umbilical / para-umbilical hernias and other abdominal wall hernias at Spire Regency Macclesfield and Spire Manchester Hospital.

I am trained in the UK and I am on the Specialist Register for General Surgery. My practice consists of both simple open procedures and more complex surgical day cases and inpatient operations. My special interest is in minimally invasive (laparoscopic) surgery, which allows for smaller incisions, less pain and quicker post-operative recovery. In the private arena, I work with trained and extremely friendly administrative staff who endeavours to respond to your queries quickly and offer you with appointments at your convenient times.

To date I have performed the following: over 500 Laparoscopic Cholecystectomies, over 350 Laparoscopic and open inguinal hernias and over 600 Upper GI endoscopies.

I work as a Consultant Upper GI Surgeon and lead for clinical governance in General Surgery at North Manchester General Hospital. I am employed by the Manchester Foundation NHS Trust. I specialise in benign upper GI and emergency General Surgery. I perform gallbladder surgery, both elective and emergency at my NHS practice. I also routinely perform anti-reflux operations / Nissens and Toupets Fundoplication and laparoscopic repair of Giant Para-oesophageal hernias / Intra-thoracic stomachs. I am a surgical trainer for registrars and core-trainees at Manchester and the lead for Clinical Mortality for North Manchester General Hospital.

I have parallel interest in Medical Law, Ethics, Biological Research, Undergraduate and Postgraduate Surgical teaching, and training. I am a member of the Medico-Legal Society of London. I am Bond Solon Certified in Investigative Law, Best practice, Report-writing, and Courtroom skills. I am also the National Research Lead for BBUGSS (British Benign Upper GI Surgical Society), Chair of NHSR (National Hiatal Surgery Registry), Honorary Senior Lecturer for Medical Education with Manchester University and an honorary clinical teacher with University of Sheffield.
