General Surgeon
I am a Consultant General, Laparoscopic, complex hernia and Upper Gastrointestinal / Acid reflux Surgeon at Croydon University Hospital in the National Health Service, HCA London Bridge in Central London and Circlehealth Shirley Oaks and Blackheath.
I am a general, upper GI, Laparoscopic and Hernia surgeon. I specialise in managing hernias of all types and the acute management of gallstones cases and have established an acute pathway for managing these cases at Croydon.
I also have a particular interest in abdominal wall hernia surgery, having established the Croydon MDT for managing complex hernias. A significant proportion of my cases are performed with keyhole surgery although a tailored, patient-centered approach is my preferred method for choosing the right operation for each patient. I am the lead upper gastrointestinal (GI) surgeon at Croydon University Hospital and am dedicated to developing the service for the benefit of local patients.
I also developed the anti-reflux surgical service at Croydon and this service continues to flourish.
In my spare time I am a single figure handicap golfer and I enjoy cycling.
