About Mr Christopher Hoo
Mr. Chris Hoo is a highly skilled Consultant Plastic & Breast Surgeon based at Belfast City Hospital within the Belfast Health and Social Care Trust. With a strong background in both plastic and breast surgery, Mr. Hoo's practice primarily focuses on oncoplastic breast and reconstructive surgery.
After completing his medical degree, Mr Hoo initially trained in Plastic Surgery, followed by further specialisation in breast surgery which has become his sub-specialty interest. Hi's plastic surgery training took place in Northern Ireland, and he further honed his skills through fellowships in Newcastle and Liverpool.
One of Mr. Hoo's key areas of expertise lies in breast reconstruction, particularly in cases following breast cancer surgeries or congenital conditions resulting in unevenly sized or shaped breasts. He also offers a range of services in breast and body aesthetic surgery, including breast enlargement with implants or fat (augmentation), breast reduction, breast uplift (mastopexy), and aesthetic breast surgery. In addition, Mr. Hoo provides services such as "tummy tuck" (abdominoplasty), lipomodelling (involving liposuction and fat grafting/transfer), prominent ear surgery (pinnaplasty), eyelid surgery (blephroplasty), and reconstructive breast surgery, including correction of breast asymmetry and male breast enlargement (gynaecomastia).
His practice also extends to the treatment of skin lesions, including the removal of lesions or moles, with reconstruction using local tissue or skin grafts. For those seeking non-surgical aesthetic procedures, Mr. Hoo offers treatments like anti-wrinkle injections and filler injections.
In addition to his clinical work, Mr. Hoo has a keen interest in teaching and is actively involved in pre-medical, undergraduate medicine, and postgraduate/specialist training. He is a dedicated advocate for doctors' working conditions and is a member of various committees.

Wonderful experience from start to finish. Felt completely at ease and confident in Mr Hoos capabilities as a surgeon.
Overall an exceedingly rewarding experience, Dr Hoo was a delight to deal with and explained everything in plain English.
I originally met with Dr. Christopher Hoo on the 11th of April 2026. My surgery was scheduled for the 18th of April. From the moment I met Dr.Chris he put me at ease no question was wrong. Everything I asked about the surgery to recovery he explained it all to me in way i could understand. I would definitely recommend Dr. Chris
Overall excellent experience with Mr Christopher Hoo, I highly recommend.
I had my breast augmentation done by Dr. Chistopher Hoo, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. From the very beginning, he was incredibly kind, professional, and patient. He took the time to explain every detail of the procedure, which made me feel fully informed and at ease. The results are amazing — his work is truly perfection. My scars are very small, the healing process has been smooth, and I’ve had no complications at all. It’s clear that he takes great pride in what he does and has exceptional skill. I’m so glad I had Dr. Hoo as my surgeon and would highly recommend him to anyone considering this procedure.
Excellent experience and my recovery was also excellent Any concerns were answered quickly after surgery I would highly recommend
I had breast augmentation recently and honestly couldn’t be happier with my results. My surgeon Mr Hoo was amazing from start to finish — professional, reassuring, and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. The care and attention I received was outstanding, and my results look so natural and exactly what I wanted. The whole team were friendly and supportive, and recovery was much easier than I expected. I would highly recommend to anyone considering surgery with Mr Hoo Thank you so much!
Mr. Hoo was very clear and helpful in describing the procedure and hopeful outcome for reshaping my breast after two cancer surgeries and radiotherapy. He was able to get it back to a more rounded shape and lift and reduce the other. I am very happy with the outcome and the treatment with Mr. Hoo and his team. I can wear normal bras again and wear fitted clothing without feeling paranoid.
As always Chris is very personable and makes me feel at ease. I’m very happy with the surgical journey I’ve taken under Chris Hoo’s care.
