About me
I am a Consultant in General and Emergency Surgery at Whittington Hospital NHS Trust in North London.
My training background is Hepato-Biliary and Pancreatic surgery (HPB) and my surgical practice covers diagnosis and treatment of dyspepsia symptoms, gallstone disease, biliary pathology, and hernia surgery at Circle Reading.
I completed my surgical training in Athens, Greece, followed by a UK Specialist Fellowship in HPB surgery at Hammersmith Hospital in London. I was then awarded a Marie-Curie European Scholarship for higher training and research in HPB surgery. My PhD thesis was on complex upper gastrointestinal surgeries and complication management. I publish actively in this subject to date
