About me

I am currently working as the only Upper GI consultant at Whipps Cross Hospital and as an in-reach resectional surgeon at University College London Hospital( UCLH). I have been an Upper GI consultant for 9 years following completion of my specialist registrar training and subsequent fellowship in the South East Thames Region.

I have been involved in Upper GI cancer at a consultant level for the last 9 years, being a core member of the MDT and then subsequently involved in the resections and follow–up.
As the only surgeon at Whipps with an Upper GI interest, I am referred all the benign upper gastrointestinal cases in our catchment area. The majority of my cases I operate laparoscopically
Furthermore I have considerable experience in complex benign and oesophageal reconstructive surgery. I routinely manage and operate on acute gastro-oesophageal emergencies.

I am a dedicated and confident surgeon, am well organized with good time management skills. I strived to mentor my team members professionally, and in some instances, personally. I enjoy teaching both during ward rounds and in theatre.

I have a keen interest in audit and research. I have had numerous presentations internationally, nationally and regionally.
