Areas of Practice
Thyroid surgery
From investigating a small thyroid nodule and helping patients with Graves disease choose their correct treatment to dealing with large goiters extending into the chest or advanced thyroid cancer, the entire spectrum of thyroid surgery is provided with emphasis on voice outcomes.
Parathyroid surgery
Last-generation imaging techniques (including sestamibi SPECT-CT and choline PET) allow selection of patients who can benefit from a minimally invasive parathyroidectomy.
Bilateral neck exploration and redo parathyroid surgery remain an important part of our practice.
Adrenal surgery
Whether you need a keyhole adrenal operation or an open radical adrenalectomy, our centre offers extensive expertise based on the largest workload in United Kingdom and an established multidisciplinary approach.
In particular I am keen to see patients who need complex multi-organ resections for adrenal cancer and those interested to have retroperitoneoscopic adrenal surgery.
An immense honour to receive the Clement Price Thomas Medal from the President of the Royal College of Surgeons.
A tribute to all patients I encountered in my work, a reflection of the time spent training the next generation, a generous nomination from a member of our community of endocrine surgeons (whose name remains unknown to me), a chance to acknowledge the opportunities offered to me by the British Association of Endocrine and Thyroid Surgeons.
‘How to build a centre of excellence in parathyroid surgery’
- a challenging title for the Charles Proye lecture that focused on the current debates in the management of primary hyperparathyroidism, presented patients’ views related to service delivery for this condition and encouraged younger surgeons to explore controversial topics in this field. Very grateful for the opportunity offered by the European Society of Endocrine Surgeons.
