About me
Professor Bilal Alkhaffaf is a consultant surgeon and specialises in the management of conditions which affect the upper gastrointestinal tract. These include oesophageal and gastric cancer, obesity, benign oesophageal and gastric disorders, acid reflux, hiatus hernia and achalasia. His clinical interests lie in advanced minimally invasive surgery including totally minimally invasive cancer surgery, primary and revisional bariatric surgery, and complex benign surgery.
In addition to his extensive clinical practice, Professor Alkhaffaf is active in the field of research and training. He was appointed to the position of 'honorary MAHSC clinical professor' at the University of Manchester in recognition of his major contribution to his clinical specialty, including excellence in research and education. Professor Alkhaffaf's research interest focuses on how results (outcomes) from surgery are reported. His role extends to the teaching and training of other surgeons, and supervision of PhD students. He founded and leads an international programme to supervise the training of surgeons.
