About me

Mr Jayanthi is a senior Robotic & Laparoscopic Surgeon.

Patients seek Mr Jayanthi's expertise for gallbladder & bile duct stones, hernias, hiatus hernias, reflux and both routine and complex upper gastrointestinal and bariatric conditions. They benefit from his specialist expertise, pioneering use of advanced robotic and keyhole surgical techniques, and commitment to providing clear communication, personalised care, and the best possible surgical outcomes, while maximising recovery and minimising discomfort.

Mr Jayanthi is recognised for his expertise in advanced minimally invasive surgery and is committed to delivering the highest standards of patient care, combining surgical excellence with a compassionate and personalised approach.

Mr Jayanthi graduated from the prestigious Bangalore Medical College and Research Institute before undertaking post-doctoral research at the University of Oxford, where he was awarded an MD. He completed higher surgical training in Wales and subsequently undertook advanced fellowships at internationally recognised centres of excellence, including ICENI Centre (Colchester), St James's University Hospital (Leeds), and the renowned Ethicon Bariatric Fellowship at Musgrove Park Hospital, one of the UK's leading bariatric surgery centres.

Mr Jayanthi is a senior Consultant Surgeon at Broomfield Hospital, Chelmsford, and sees private patients at Springfield Hospital, Chelmsford, and Oaks Hospital, Colchester.

Mr Jayanthi has a particular interest in robotic and advanced laparoscopic surgery. He performed the UK's first robotic oesophagectomy and routinely uses state-of-the-art robotic and 3D laparoscopic technology to enhance surgical precision, minimise pain, and support faster recovery. The vast majority of his elective and emergency procedures are performed using minimally invasive techniques whenever clinically appropriate.

An innovator in his field, Mr Jayanthi has developed and published a novel fully hand-sewn reconstructive technique following major gastrointestinal surgery, with his work presented at both national and international scientific meetings.
His commitment to advancing surgical practice has been recognised through the prestigious David Dunn Travelling Fellowship awarded by the Association of Laparoscopic Surgeons of Great Britain and Ireland (ALSGBI). This enabled him to visit leading centres in Japan and India to learn advanced minimally invasive surgical techniques, many of which he has successfully incorporated into his own practice.

Beyond his clinical work, Mr Jayanthi is actively involved in surgical education and research. He has trained surgeons internationally, including charitable work in Zambia teaching laparoscopic surgery. He is faculty on advanced minimally invasive surgery courses at the Royal College of Surgeons, an invited speaker at national and international conferences, and has published extensively in peer-reviewed medical journals.

Mr Jayanthi currently serves as a Council Member of AUGIS (Association of Upper Gastrointestinal Surgeons of Great Britain and Ireland) and Joint Secretary of the Indian Foregut Surgeons of Great Britain and Ireland.

Outside his professional work, Mr Jayanthi is a keen cyclist and a cricketer. He rides regularly raising funds for various charities.
