About me
I qualified as a Doctor of Medicine and Surgery from the University of Malta. After training at St Luke’s Hospital, I moved to the United Kingdom for specialist training. I completed a research degree (MD University of London) at King’s College Hospital and at the Department of Metabolic Medicine at the Hammersmith Hospital. My MD thesis was about changes in gut hormones after bariatric surgery. I completed my surgical training in London and North-East Thames region.
I was appointed as a consultant surgeon at UHL, London.
My specialist clinical interest is bariatric (weight loss) and metabolic surgery, having completed a surgical fellowship at University College Hospital, London. I also have an interest in laparoscopic (keyhole) abdominal surgery, in particular the management of gallstone disease and gastro-oesophageal reflux.
I am a member of ASGBI, AUGIS, BOMSS and IFSO. My main research interests are gut hormones and metabolic changes after bariatric surgery.
I am the Editor for Journal of the International Bariatric Club (www.ibcclub.org)
I am a Regional Surgical Advisor (London) for the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh.
