Special interests
Laparoscopic (Keyhole) gallbladder and biliary surgery
I have a special interest in diseases of the gallbladder such as gallstones and gallbladder dyskinesia and have a high volume practice in managing these conditions with experience in managing acute gallstone disease. I also manage bile duct stones and pancreatic pseudocysts laparoscopically.
Laparoscopic (Keyhole ) Groin hernia surgery
All patients with groin hernia regardless of symptoms should be offered a consultation as the long term outcome of early operation is better than wait and watch policy even in asymptomatic hernia according to recently published international guidelines. I have a special interest in performing laparoscopic groin hernia operations. I have been to Belgium to train and learn new approaches in robotic surgery in groin hernia .
Abdominal wall hernia and complex abdominal wall reconstruction ( Laparoscopic/Open)
I adopt a multidisciplinary team approach to complex abdominal wall reconstruction including both open and minimally invasive techniques. Abdominal wall hernia result in poor quality of life due to poor abdominal wall function and surgical treatment can offer a significant improvement in quality of life. I offer Laparoscopic and open approaches to management of abdominal wall hernia, incisional hernia, umbilical and paraumbilical hernia. I have learnt new approaches in robotic surgery in abdominal wall hernia repair and reconstruction at specialist centres in Belgium .
Acute Surgery (Laparoscopic/Open)
I have a high volume practice im emergency surgery and perform laparoscopic appendicectomy, laparoscopic cholecystectomy , diagnostic laparoscopy for abdominal pain, small bowel resection, colectomy, laparoscopic duodenal perforated ulcer repair
Excision of skin lesions, surgical treatment of haemorrhoids and anal fissure.

Peer recommendations
General Surgery
I have known Niteen since his training days. he is an excellent surgeon and a kind and empathetic human being. He has extensive experience in complex key hole surgery of the gallbladder due to subspecialty experience in Hepatobiliary surgery. He completed specialist fellowship at Queen Elizabeth hospital in Birmingham and gained Hepatobiliary Consultant level experience in Liverpool. He also have good experience in management of groin and abdominal wall hernia and have also received Robotics training in Belgium. I would strongly recommend him for any specialist surgical issues requiring consultation or surgery.
