My current role
I am also highly skilled in lymphedema surgery and supermicrosurgery. My expertise spans reconstruction in the lower limb after trauma or after bone infection, and skin cancer assessment and excision with reconstruction if required. I also reconstruct non-healing wounds and defects in the trunk, and head and neck regions.
I have extensive experience in microvascular free flap reconstruction, achieving a success rate of more than 95%. I have performed over thousands procedures to date, ranging from free flap reconstruction to lymphedema surgery.
I am also an honorary consultant at Royal Papworth Hospital where I perform complex chest wall flap reconstructions on a regular basis.
Previous history
I have trained at esteemed institutions worldwide, before taking up this role at Addenbrooke’s Hospital, a major trauma centre serving the East of England. Prior to this, I completed an intensive clinical and research microsurgery fellowship at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital in Taiwan—one of the world’s leading trauma and cancer centres. There, I gained invaluable experience and advanced techniques in handling some of the most complex cases in microsurgical reconstruction.
Beyond my clinical practice, I am also a dedicated researcher and educator. I have authored over 150 publications and contributed book chapters in the Oxford Textbook of Plastic Surgery.
