He trained as a general surgeon with particular emphasis on breast, endocrine, open hernia and gallbladder surgery for over 13 years in his home country to achieve consultant status before relocating to the UK for further training in the year 2000. Seven years in training in the Mersey region led to proficiency in general surgery / breast/ endocrine surgery including laparoscopic cholecystectomies (elective conversion to open rate 1% vs. national average 5%) and the last three years of his training were at the Royal Liverpool University Hospital to develop sub-specialist skills in breast and endocrine surgery. Despite extensive experience in general surgery, he provides a resectional oncoplastic breast surgery service.

He offers primary and secondary breast reconstruction / symmetrisation surgery. He also performs thyroid and parathyroid surgery.
