Specialising in hernia, gallstones, liver and pancreatic conditions
I am a consultant general surgeon with a specialist interest in malignant and benign disease of the liver, gallbladder, bile duct and pancreas. My NHS practice involves surgery for abdominal wall hernias as well as the full range of operations for the above conditions, from relatively minor gallbladder surgery to the most complex major abdominal cancer resections.
I graduated from Cambridge University with honours and undertook general surgical training in the East Midlands. I undertook a period of full time research in pancreatic cancer culminating in the award of MD (res) from Leicester University. I completed training in all aspects of general, hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery in Leicester with a year of advanced fellowship training at the Birmingham Liver Unit. I took up a consultant surgeon post in Southampton in 2018.
I believe strongly in patient-centred care and offering the right treatment to the right patient at the right time.
I offer treatment for inguinal (groin) hernias and any other hernia affecting the abdomen. In selected cases I can offer treatment under local anaesthetic
I am one of a small team of specialist liver, pancreatic and gallbladder surgeons based in Southampton who are qualified to offer comprehensive treatment for all problems affecting the gallbladder however complex. This includes gallstones but also cancer and complex surgery to the bile ducts and adjacent liver, which can occasionally arise unexpectedly during surgery.
My specialist practice includes managing patients with benign (usually inflammatory) or malignant (cancer) conditions of these organs. I have a particular interest and expertise in the management of pancreatic cancer, with one of the largest personal operative caseloads in the UK over the last 5 years. I routinely undertake keyhole surgery for some procedures on the liver, gallbladder and pancreas. I co-founded the Southampton robotic HPB surgery programme and now have one of the most active practices of robotic major HPB Surgery in the UK.
