Mr Kenn Lim

I’ve been a Consultant Gynaecologist at Salford Royal Hospital, part of the Northern Care Alliance, since September 2020. My primary focus is on minimal access surgery within gynaecology, particularly advanced laparoscopic techniques. I received my training at the Northwest Pelvic Pain and Endometriosis Centre at St. Mary’s Hospital in Manchester, where I honed my skills in minimal access surgery. Within my role in the NHS, I lead the gynaecology theatre and successfully introduced day case hysterectomy at the hospital. As a result of this initiative, our unit now boasts one of the highest day case hysterectomy rates in the region. From an educational standpoint, I am involved with the faculty of the Gynaecological Endoscopic Surgical Education and Assessment (GESEA) programme under the BSGE in the UK. I also enjoy teaching medical students and serve as an OSCE examiner at Manchester Medical School. Over the years, I have organised numerous courses in laparoscopic and hysteroscopic techniques for trainees. In 2024, I was nominated for the Trainer of the Year award in Obstetrics and Gynaecology and am the laparoscopic and hysteroscopic simulation training programme director (TPD) in the North West School of Obstetrics and Gynaecology.
