I am a New Zealand and internationally trained trauma and general surgeon providing care for a wide array of pathologies including laparoscopic management of gall bladder diseases, abdominal wall hernias, anorectal conditions and pilonidal disease. I also provide treatment of skin cancers, including reconstrucion with local flaps and skin grafts.

I am passionate about providing quality care for my patients but also believe in training and teaching young doctors at EMST (ATLS) and DSTC courses. I belong to various committees and organisations which strive to improve patient care in the community via education, mentoring and policy changes.
