Mr Jonathan Hardman

I am Consultant Surgeon with over 12 years experience.  I am based at Mid Cheshire NHS Foundation Trust, specialising in laparoscopic general and colorectal surgery, including treating bowel cancer. As the Lead Surgeon for Colorectal services at my hospital, I work closely within a team of multidisciplinary healthcare professionals to ensure we deliver a high quality and safe service for our patients. I have an interest in laparoscopic and other ‘minimally invasive’ surgical treatments for a wide range of disorders involving the gastrointestinal tract, in particular those affecting the colon, rectum and anus, including haemorrhoids and other causes of rectal bleeding. I graduated from the University of Manchester in 1996 and continued my surgical training in the North West of England, becoming a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of England in 2007. In addition, I have an interest in research and training, having presented my research at international meetings and was awarded a Doctorate of Medicine (MD) from the University of Manchester in 2010. I have also undertaken a prestigious Royal College of Surgeons of England National Fellowship in Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery. I have a high safety record for patients undergoing major bowel cancer surgery under my care, which is published each year by the Association of Coloproctology of Great Britain and Ireland.
