About me
I am a general surgeon with a special interest in coloproctology and laparoscopic surgery. I have worked with a variety of surgeons with different surgical interests. My main higher surgical training was in the North East Thames region. I also trained in coloproctology, inflammatory bowel disease and ano-rectal functional disorders at the Royal Free Hospital in London. My training at Whipps Cross Hospital expanded my experience in laparoscopic surgery, especially cholecystectomy (key-hole surgery for gall bladders) and hernia repair surgery.
In my private practice I carry out laparoscopic (keyhole) hernia repair and laparoscopic gall bladder removal together with a variety of other general surgery procedures. I also carry out all forms of laparoscopic bowel surgery. Recently I started treating haemorrhoids with a new technique of radio-frequency ablation (RAFAELO). It is a safe and effective day care procedure with minimal post-operative pain and early recovery.
My private practice reflects my NHS practice. In addition to the above, I also specialised in management of pelvic floor disorder and constipation.
Personal profile:
I am married with two grown-up sons. I am actively involved in improving standards of health education in the community. I regularly arrange talks and workshops for my local community and am willing to extend this to other communities.
