About Mr Jamie Vatish

Mr Jamie Vatish is a highly respected Consultant Oncoplastic and Reconstructive Breast Surgeon based in Birmingham, specialising in the comprehensive surgical management of breast cancer and breast disease. He offers private care at The Harborne Hospital (HCA Healthcare UK) and The Priory Hospital, where he leads one-stop breast clinics providing rapid diagnosis, personalised treatment planning, and advanced reconstructive options. He is the Lead Breast Surgeon at University Hospitals Birmingham, the largest Breast Service in the UK and delivers tertiary level care for patients from across the Midlands with Breast Angiosarcoma and Inoperable Breast Cancer requiring Electrochemotherapy. His expertise was recently featured on the TV series, Surgeons: A matter of life or Death.

Mr Vatish is recognised for his expertise in oncoplastic breast surgery, combining cancer removal with techniques that preserve breast shape and appearance. He is one of the few surgeons in the West Midlands trained in partial breast reconstruction using chest wall perforator flaps, a technique that may prevent the need for mastectomy in selected patients. His specialist skills also include the management of benign breast disease, risk-reducing breast surgery, and rare implant-related conditions, including Breast Implant-Associated Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma (BIA-ALCL).

He graduated with honours in 2010 from Guy’s, King’s and St Thomas’ Medical School, London, also completing a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology. After higher surgical training across the Midlands, he was awarded the prestigious National Fellowship in Oncoplastic Breast Surgery at the Leeds Breast Unit, where he gained advanced expertise in complex breast reconstruction and the treatment of immune-related cancers associated with implants.

I initially booked an appointment with Mr Vatish to discuss removing my breast implants because of a lump I discovered 18 months ago. I was told several times by professionals that the lump looked benign but something pulled me not to listen. After doing some research and reading several reviews about Mr Vatish I decided to book a consultation. From the moment I walked in, he was professional, attentive, and genuinely caring. He listened to my concerns and requested a biopsy on the lump. The results came back as cancer. The news was devastating but he explained everything in a clear and compassionate way. What stood out was his ability to make me feel comfortable and cared for. Mr Vatishs knowledge and expertise helped me understand my diagnosis and I’m delighted to say he removed the cancer. My journey is not yet over but the whole process from start to finish with Mr Vatish has been excellent, smooth and well organised which is what I needed during an incredibly stressful time. I will be forever grateful to him and I can not praise him enough. Thank you so much.
