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) and reconstructive breast surgery, including correction of breast asymmetry and male breast enlargement (gynaecomastia).
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.

AI Review Summary
This summary was created by AI based on recent reviews
Mr Christopher Hoo maintains a professional manner, offering reassuring and clear communication that puts patients at ease. He provides thorough explanations of procedures and delivers outstanding aftercare. Patients report excellent results across various breast and body contouring surgeries, commending his dedication and skill. Key procedures include breast reduction, abdominoplasty, and breast augmentation.
Dr Hoo has been extremely thorough, professional and reassuring the whole way through. He has explained the process every step of the way through. Definitely recommend him for breast reduction overall.
Thank you for your positive review. I’m glad that you have achieved a good result from your breast reduction performed at the AVOCA clinic.
I am delighted with the results following my abdominoplasty and liposuction. From the very beginning, my surgeon was honest and realistic about what results I could expect. He never made unrealistic promises and took the time to explain everything clearly, which gave me complete confidence in my decision. I would happily recommend him to anyone considering abdominoplasty and liposuction
Thank you for the review of the procedure you had at the AVOCA clinic (abdominoplasty and liposuction). I’m pleased that you are delighted with your result. Patient engagement and education are keys to success and it was a privilege to have helped you along your surgical journey.
I couldn’t recommend Dr. Hoo highly enough. I had a tummy tuck and breast augmentation with him and I am absolutely delighted with my results. From my very first consultation, I found Dr. Hoo extremely professional, thorough and reassuring. He really listened to what I wanted, explained everything very clearly and I never once felt rushed. I always felt that he genuinely cared about achieving the best possible result for me. I’m also really happy with how my scars are healing. At a recent review, Dr. Hoo actually pointed out one tiny area of my scar that I personally wasn’t concerned about at all. He explained that he expects it to improve naturally, but wants to review it again in six months and, if it hasn’t healed exactly as he would like, he would be happy to revise that small area. I was so impressed by this. I hadn’t mentioned the area and genuinely didn’t have an issue with it, but the fact that he noticed it himself and wanted to make sure the final result was as good as possible really showed me the level of detail, honesty and pride he takes in his work. My whole experience has been extremely positive and I’m so happy that I chose Dr. Hoo. I would have no hesitation in recommending him, and if I ever decided to have another procedure in the future, I would definitely go back to him
Thank you for your thorough review. I’m pleased to hear that you are delighted with the results of your breast augmentation and tummy tuck (essentially a mummy makeover!) performed at the AVOCA Clinic. It is important to me that you get the best possible result; so please don’t hesitate to contact me if the area does not settle as we can easily plan a small revision.
Very polite and helpful
Thank you for your kind words. I glad that you found your experience with me and the team at The Avoca Clinic Dublin a pleasant one.
Absolutely delighted with my breast lift surgery and the results! From my very first consultation, I felt completely comfortable and confident that I was in safe hands. The whole experience was professional, caring and reassuring from start to finish. I’m so happy with the results — I feel more confident, feminine and like myself again. The care and attention to detail have been amazing, and I honestly couldn’t be happier with my decision. A huge thank you to the surgeon Dr Hoo and the entire team for looking after me so well. I would highly recommend them to anyone considering breast surgery.
