General, laparoscopic and bariatric surgeon. Involved in the early development of laparoscopic hernia surgery in Australia and I have a continuing interest in both simple and complex abdominal hernias, along with groin pain and its management. I offer quick consultation and management of gallbladder disease and similarly for those obese patients looking at bariatric surgery. As an experienced general surgeon I am happy to manage a wide variety of pathology including skin lesions, thyroid and breast disease as well as all gastrointestinal surgery and endoscopy/colonoscopy.
