About me
I am a consultant general and abdominal transplant surgeon at the Freeman Hospital with a specialist interest in benign hepatobiliary disease and abdominal wall hernias. I have extensive expertise in minimally invasive hernia and gallbladder surgery and play a leading role in delivering the day case service at the Freeman Hospital in Newcastle. I have particular interest and experience in developing multimodal enhanced recovery pathways after surgery with the aim of empowering and better preparing patients for surgery, promoting speedier recovery as a result.
I am a current fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of England and a member of the British and European Hernia Societies and the British Transplantation Society. I have an extensive academic background having achieved a master's degree in Advanced Surgical Practice, a PhD in Liver Transplantation and a PGCert in Healthcare Leadership. I am actively involved in clinical research with over 15 peer-reviewed published articles in my field and over 50 presentations in national and international specialist meetings.
