Über uns

As a Consultant General Surgeon with over 25 years of clinical practice, I am one of the most experienced specialists in Liver, Gall Bladder, Pancreas and Hernia surgery in the Hampshire, Surrey and Berkshire area.

Having previously worked in London and Surrey, I have now been a Consultant Surgeon at Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust for 15 years, providing advanced, evidence-based care for patients with both routine and highly complex surgical needs.

My practice philosophy is simple: personalised care, honest advice, and the highest possible standards of safety.

Training & Specialist Expertise:

My surgical training spans some of the most respected centres across Scotland, London and the South East of England, where I have had the privilege of working with internationally recognised leaders in liver and pancreatic surgery.

To deepen my expertise further, I also spent time during my early consultant career at world-renowned centres in the USA and Japan, gaining specialist exposure to complex hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) techniques.

My practice consists entirely of specialist work for diseases of the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, bile duct and hernias. I also perform surgery for minor skin conditions, such as lipomas, cysts and moles / skin cancers along with upper GI endoscopy (gastroscopy).

I do not operate outside my scope of practice, as I feel strongly that outcomes are linked to experience and training, so to offer you the best results, I concentrate on what I do best.

Commitment to Quality, Safety, Leadership & Governance:

Quality and patient safety are at the heart of every decision I make.

Within Hampshire Hospitals, I serve as a Medical Director and have previously held various senior leadership roles over the last 12 years, including responsibilities as Director of Surgery, Anaesthetics, Critical Care and Cancer Care.

I currently oversee:

Safe and effective use of clinical resources

Development and delivery of innovative, high-quality services

Maintenance of professional and ethical standards across departments

Nationally, I also support the Parliamentary Health Service Ombudsman as a National Specialty Advisor, helping ensure fairness, safety and accountability in healthcare delivery.

Academic & Professional Leadership:

Alongside my clinical practice, I maintain an active academic portfolio, with a doctorate level postgraduate research degree underpinning this interest:

200+ publications in leading surgical journals

Contributor to several invited book chapters

Regular reviewer for multiple surgical and oncology journals

Clinical Editor for Surgery Journal

I have held several senior positions within national professional bodies, including:

Past President, Section of Surgery at the Royal Society of Medicine

Past President, Association of Surgeons in Training

Former Council Member,

The Royal College of Surgeons of England

The Association of Surgeons

The Association of Laparoscopic Surgeons

The Surgical Research Society

These roles reflect my commitment to advancing surgical standards, training the next generation of surgeons, and contributing to the future of the profession.

How I can help you:

I understand that choosing a surgeon is a significant decision. My goal is to provide every patient with:

1. Clear explanations in language and terms that you understand

2. Compassionate, honest guidance of what surgery will and, crucially, may not achieve for you

3. The confidence of knowing you are in safe, experienced hands, with specialist knowledge, expertise and skills

4. Responsive service, with prompt access to clinic appointments (usually within a week), flexible dates for surgery and the safest facilities with private rooms

“Evidence-based care tailored to each patient — taking the time to explain options and shared decisions.”
— Mr Ben Cresswell
