About
Mr Miles Duncan has been a Consultant Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon at the BMI Hospital, Lancaster, since 2017. Correction of facial deformity is his subspecialty of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, offering the full range of Orthognathic (Jaw corrective) surgery, including distraction osteogenesis. He spends much of his NHS time with management of facial trauma, being an important aspect of his weekly routine. He is also involved with removal of facial skin cancer and other facial skin lesions, and their reconstruction with local flaps or grafts. Mr Duncan also offers removal of lumps of the salivary glands, recently introducing minimally invasive salivary gland surgery (sialendoscopy) to the unit in Lancaster. Other services include investigations, including biopsy of oral or perioral lesions, treatment of oral ulcers and other mucosal conditions, and management of TMJ disorders. His oral surgery interests include implantology, sinus lifts and bone grafting, removal of wisdom teeth and complex dento-alveolar procedures.
Mr Duncan graduated with Honours, achieving a Bachelor of Medical Science from Dundee University in 1991 and then a Bachelor of Dental Surgery in 1993. He then worked in Scotland for several years gaining experience in the field of maxillofacial surgery before his acceptance to medical school at Guys, Kings and St Thomas', London graduating in 2001. After completing his basic surgical training in Accident & Emergency, General Surgery, Orthopaedics and ENT at Northwick Park Hospital, NW London, Miles undertook higher surgical training in Oral and Maxillofacial surgery in the North East of England, based at Middlesbrough, Sunderland and Newcastle and then on the South Coast, training at Brighton, Eastbourne and then at the Queen Victoria Hospital in East Grinstead, being awarded FRCS (Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery) in 2017.

Mr Duncan managed the extraction of my wisdom tooth fantastically. My expectations were set clearly and simply and the extraction itself was very straightforward, to the extent that I didn't even need painkillers after the anaesthetic wore off.

Mr Duncan has been brilliant to me from the very start. Very professional and great at explaining the steps involved in the process. His team at the Royal Lancaster Infirmary have always made me feel welcome. I’d also like to thank Mr Gowans for his contribution too.

I have been One Miles patient for a good number of years now , Yesterday i had a minor surgery for jaw joints to be washed out on both sides under a day case timescale . Even thou I've had this procedure done a good number of times by Miles he takes great care to make sure I'm fully aware of what he is going to do , follow up care and what i need to do the days weeks after the procedure. I suffer some Mental health issues with anxiety , stress , Miles takes this onboard and fully reassures me with every step of the way he makes me totally relaxed to the point I don't stress or worry if there is any thing I'm worried about he try's his very best to help me out and put me at ease .

I have had a really pleasant experience with Mr Duncan from start to finish, he has been extremely helpful and has always made me feel at ease and I felt I could trust him completely throughout my journey.

Miles Duncan was extremely attentive, providing clear communication and support throughout the time in his care. No question was too much and he really did everything in his power to ensure my mother's surgery and care was top notch. He also took the time to explain complicated surgeries, new to us, in every day terminology and bring it down to an understandle level. Couldn't rate Miles Duncan any higher on the care received.
