Mr Christopher McFaul: General surgery

Covid-19

Hospitals are starting to offer more treatment for private patients, although a very small number will continue to provide NHS care only. Hospitals will need to catch up on all the treatment that was postponed at the start of the outbreak. If you’re due to see a Bupa recognised healthcare professional, we recommend you discuss this with them as they’ll be best placed to let you know whether there’s likely to be any impact on your treatment. Hospitals are taking extra precautionary steps to keep patients safe, such as asking them to self-isolate for 14 days before treatment and pre-admission testing.

About me

I have been a consultant surgeon in Chester since 2010.
I undertook my surgical training in the North west and London.
I specialise in laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery, for bowel cancer and other conditions such as gallstones, diverticular disease, Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.
I undertook a training fellowship in laparoscopic colorectal surgery at the internationally renowned St Mark's Hospital in Harrow in 2009-2010. I was trained by Professor Robin Kennedy and Mr Ian Jenkins.
I also have a keen interest in laparoscopic surgery for gallstones and hernias (inguinal and incisional).
I have taken a lead role in the training of surgeons in laparoscopic surgery during my time in Chester.
I am the Trust Audit Lead in the Planned Care Division.
