About me

I was appointed as a Consultant Laparoscopic Colorectal & General Surgeon at Luton & Dunstable University Hospital in January 2012. I have completed training as a robotic surgeon utilising the daVinci platform for colorectal resectional surgery and hernia repair.

I have a specialist interest in laparoscopic (keyhole) gastrointestinal surgery for bowel cancer (colon and rectum), inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn's disease & ulcerative colitis), surgical treatment of diverticular disease & rectal prolapse. I offer expertise in laparoscopic/robotic groin hernia surgery (inguinal, femoral) and incisional hernia repair.
�
I have experience in treating all common coloproctology conditions including haemorrhoids (THD and Rafaelo), anal fistula surgery, pilonidal sinus, and anal fissures. I am an accredited endoscopist with expertise in colonoscopy and polypectomy.
�
I graduated from St Marys Hospital, London in 1997, then completed my training in the South-East Thames region, before a year-long fellowship in pelvic floor surgery at John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford.
�
I have a strong academic interest in clinical surgery and have published extensively across the field of colorectal & general surgery in various papers in peer-reviewed journals. I am an examiner for the Royal College of Surgeons (England) and actively trains young surgeons in laparoscopic keyhole surgery.
�
I believe all patients should have high quality, evidence-based approach to their care. In addition to my NHS practice, I practise at a number of hospitals including in London and Hertfordshire.
