Mr Alexander Ramsden

Mr Alex Ramsden Mr Ramsden is Plastic surgeon with specialist interests in migraine surgery, lymphoedema and osteomyelitis (bone infections) and works in both the NHS and privately.  . He has really enjoyed spending time with surgeons around the world training in these procedure and is excited by the transformative difference surgery can make.  Mr Ramsden has been a consultant plastic surgeon since 2010 in Oxford, having trained in medicine and plastic surgery in Glasgow and Newcastle.  He has been performing nerve decompression surgery since 1998 and has quite literally been around the world in his medical career, working in Australia and for a brief but cold period as Doctor for the British Antarctic Survey in Antarctica.  Mr Ramsden is married with four children and live just outside Oxford. For any one looking at the website there are some data issues. For lymphoedema surgery, I operate as part of Oxford Lymphoedema Practice. This is a group of 3 surgeons who operate together. This means that the numbers of patients on this website is totally wrong and my work is under reported due to the data collection issues of health care providers. Also my work doing LVA is classified as vascular surgery but I a not a 'vascular surgoen'. I am a Plastic microsurgeon who operates on blood vessels and lymphatics. Semantics maybe, but the problem with websites like this is that they do not cater for niche specialties or super specialist operations like LVA. I therefore caution against taking my data on this website too seriously. As they say - rubbish data in = rubbish data out.
