My philosophy to patient care is centred on compassion, trust and understanding. My mission is to ensure that your surgical experience is as smooth as possible by listening and advocating for you every step of the way. My objective is to maximise patients’ function in the least invasive manner possible, based on evidence-based research and an understanding every individual’s unique set of needs (both in their current stage of life and potentially the future, which is a particularly important consideration for adolescents and children). Where surgery is required, I operate using modern techniques and well-proven implants, and, with my microsurgical training, am meticulous in the handling of soft tissue through all my procedures.
