About me

I am a specialist upper gastrointestinal and bariatric surgeon with many years of consultant experience.

My practice encompasses keyhole abdominal surgery of the upper GI system. I specialise in gallstones & gallbladder surgery, reflux / hiatus hernia surgery, NHS weight-loss surgery, and both general and complex hernia repairs.

Most surgery I normally performed using specialist keyhole (laparoscopic techniques).

I am one of Bristol's leading UGI & bariatric surgeons as a Consultant Surgeon at North Bristol NHS Trust, based at Southmead Hospital. I am a member of the Association of Upper GI surgeons, The British Obesity and metabolic surgery Society, the National Bariatric Surgery Registry, and the Local Principal Investigator for National Bariatric Surgery (ByBandSleeve) and Gallstone (Sunflower & Rosier) Clinical Trials.

I undertake all forms of keyhole hernia operations and I am a member of the SW regional Abdominal Wall Reconstruction team, so I will undertake open complex incisional hernia surgery, trauma hernia surgery and complex revisional groin & ventral hernias.

I also have an interest in specialist bariatric and reflux upper GI endoscopy.
