I am an experienced Consultant General Surgeon with a specialist interest in laparoscopic and colorectal surgery.
I have been a consultant at Lister Hospital since 2011 where my interests and expertise include all types of open and laparoscopic abdominal wall hernia repair (including inguinal, umbilical, epigastric, incisional and femoral hernias), laparoscopic cholecystectomy for gallstones, proctology (including haemorrhoids, fistulas, fissure, pilonidal sinus), laparoscopic and open surgery for colorectal cancer and inflammatory bowel disease and the investigation of abdominal symptoms such as abdominal pain, change in bowel habit, anorectal symptoms and groin pain. I have a particular interest in colonoscopy and flexible sigmoidoscopy and I am an accredited Bowel Cancer Screening colonoscopist.
Up to February 2022 the procedures I have performed as a consultant include:
- Laparoscopic cholecystectomy - 954 (99.3% completed laparoscopically)
- Total number of abdominal wall hernia repairs - 1364
- Inguinal hernia repair - 895 (both open and laparoscopic)
- Umbilical hernia repair - 252
- Total proctology (including haemorrhoids, fistula, fissure, pilonidal sinus) - 731
- Major colorectal resections 483 (including 293 for cancer)
- Colonoscopy >4000 (97% caecal intubation rate)
I have previously held the roles of clinical director for general surgery, colorectal cancer MDT lead and University of Cambridge senior clinical tutor at Lister Hospital. I have been the local lead investigator on a number of national trials and have published over 30 papers. I was awarded a MD after two years of research.
Patient safety is my priority and I always ensure patients are fully informed of all treatment options and participate in shared decision making to achieve the best possible outcomes.
