About
Dr Li is a Consultant Gastroenterologist and was appointed to his current NHS consultant post at Worthing Hospital in 2004. He started practicing at BMI Goring Hall Hospital in 2006. He is the founder and clinical lead for inflammatory bowel disease services for Western Sussex Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and lead for endoscopy training for Worthing Hospital.
Dr Li sees patients with gastrointestinal and liver disorders. He believes a multi-disciplinary approach is important for the majority of patients with concerns around their bowel health and this might include involvement of other professionals to whom he might refer.
He sits on the specialist training committee for Gastroenterology for Kent, Surrey and Sussex Deanery and is actively involved in the training of junior doctors, medical students and nurses. He is a fully accredited trainer in diagnostic and therapeutic gastrointestinal endoscopic procedures including Gastroscopy, flexible sigmoidoscopy and colonoscopy.
He is actively recruiting to clinical trials in Worthing Hospital that reflect his clinical interests. Dr Li is involved in multiple studies looking at genetic and therapeutic aspects of inflammatory bowel disease; safety of biologic therapies in inflammatory bowel disease; treatment of iron deficiency; endoscopic assessment of Barrett's oesophagus and new ways of diagnosing gastrointestinal malignancy. He continues to write and referee articles which are published in peer reviewed journals.
When he is not spending time with his very young family - Dr Li is an amateur astronomer and astrophotographer. He is a member of Worthing Astronomers and The British Astronomy Association. His planetary photographic work has been featured in magazines and journals.

CardiologyDr Li is a very well respected senior colleague. He is the lead for inflammatory bowel disease at Worthing Hospital. He is very experienced in managing indigestion, acid reflux, abdominal pain, nausea/vomiting and bleeding. He routinely performs endoscopies and I confidently refer my patients to him.
