About me
I diagnose and manage both benign and malignant conditions of the Breast. I do a clinic at the Spire once a week on a thursday afternoon. This is a one-stop clinic which is run in a sensitive and empathic way using triple assessment.
Areas of interest
Diagnosis and management benign and malignant breast lumps and conditions.Conditions such as Breast lumps, breast pain, nipple inversion or nipple discharge, dimples and change in breast shape are all assessed.
I perform Breast surgery for Breast cancer with reconstruction. The scope of my surgery is Breast conservation, mastectomy and sentinel node biopsy. I also offer Breast reconstruction either implant based or liaise with my plastic surgical colleague to offer joint operating to provide micro-vascular technique DIEP.
I specialise in risk reducing surgery for patients with High risk and Gene related Breast Cancer.
