About me

Mr Deniz received excellent neurosurgical training prior to his appointment to Consultant Neurosurgeon at Leeds General Infirmary in November 2012. His neurosurgical training took place on the North Thames Higher Surgical Training Rotation in London where he completed posts at Charing Cross Hospital, Bart’s and The Royal London Hospital, Great Ormond Street Hospital and The National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery in Queen Square. He then relocated to the Neurosurgical Unit at The John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford to gain Fellowship experience in lateral skull base surgery, in particular surgery for vestibular schwannoma, and endoscopic pituitary surgery. Finally he returned to London in January 2012 when he commenced a Neurovascular Fellowship at King’s College Hospital in London, gaining invaluable and unique training in the decision-making and operative management of brain and spinal vascular malformations, including the clipping of aneurysms and excision of AVMs. He was appointed Consultant at Leeds Teaching Hospitals with specific subspecialty interests in Neurovascular and skull base surgery. He is fully trained and competent to perform the full range of cranial and spinal surgeries.
