About me
I am a consultant upper gastrointestinal, bariatric and general surgeon with extensive experience in laparoscopic and robotic minimally invasive surgery. I am the Clinical Lead for General Surgery at the Royal Berkshire Foundation NHS Trust (RBH) and have a private practice in Reading at the Ramsay Berkshire Independent Hospital, Spire Dunedin, and Circle hospitals.
I graduated from Imperial College in London in 2003. I undertook my initial surgical training at Guy's and St. Thomas' hospitals in London. Specialist surgical training in the Oxford and in 2012 I became a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of England (FRCS). I then had further sub-specialty training in minimally invasive surgery in Reading and Oxford, and in 2014 completed my Higher Surgical training (CCT- GMC specialist register) with sub-specialty interest in Upper GI surgery. After this, I completed the sought after Upper GI and Bariatric surgery fellowship at Monash Medical Centre, Melbourne. I was appointed as their first international fellow and developed expertise in all forms of complex minimally invasive gallbladder, hernia, anti-reflux surgery, and weight loss surgery.
I have been a consultant surgeon since 2015. I helped to develop the bariatric unit into a level 1 tertiary referral centre. In 2017, I set up the Robotic Surgery programme for Upper GI surgery and in 2023 have introduced endoscopic surgery into the Royal Berkshire Hospital. I regularly perform primary and complex revision surgery for hernias, weight loss, acid reflux and gallstones. This is performed both laparoscopically and using the Da Vinci’ Xi Robotic platform. I audit my work, and submit my outcome data to local and national registries.
