Dr Sanjeev Pattni

I qualified from University College London in 1999 and completed my medical training as a doctor in London with brief spells in Cambridge and Perth, Australia. I completed my Gastroenterology training in London in 2013 having worked at hospitals including Imperial College Hospitals and St Marks Hospital in London, which is internationally recognised for its expertise in endoscopy, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, and functional bowel disorders. I completed my Research MD in 2012 at Hammersmith Hospital, London, in Bile Acid Malabsorption with numerous publications.

From 2013, I continued as a Consultant Gastroenterologist at University Hospitals Of Leicester. I have specialist interests in small bowel diseases, chronic diarrhoea, Inflammatory Bowel Disease and run specialist clinics in Adolescent Inflammatory Bowel Disease. I am an advanced colonoscopist for the National Bowel Cancer Screening Programme, as well as the medical advisor to East Midlands Crohns and Colitis UK. I have been Head of Endoscopy at Leicester Hospitals and I am now Head of the Department.
