Professor Steven Brown: 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 colorectal consultant surgeon for over 15 years and University of Sheffield Professor of Surgery since 2017. I have an interest in all aspects of colorectal surgery but particularly inflammatory conditions of the bowel and problems with pelvic floor function including difficulty evacuating, prolapse and incontinence. I have a large NHS practice in these areas and work closely with experts locally and around the country. I have also trained in colonoscopy for over 20 years, learning initially from Japanese and Singaporian experts in the use of colonoscopy with minimal discomfort. I also practice the HALO procedure for haemorrhoids and have carried out definite research in this area in particular.

Areas of interest

Colorectal surgery (lower GI); Inflammatory bowel disease; Constipation; Hernia
