About
Mr. Christopher Sutton is a highly experienced general and upper gastrointestinal surgeon, based in Kettering, Leicester, and Nottingham, specialising in bariatric surgery, acid reflux surgery, and gallbladder surgery, alongside endoscopy and weight loss surgery. He practices privately at Woodland Hospital, Spire Leicester Hospital, and BMI The Park Hospital, while serving as the Lead General Surgeon and Upper Gastrointestinal Surgeon for University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust.
Mr. Sutton is recognised for his innovative practice, particularly in acid reflux and weight-loss surgery. He was the first surgeon in the UK to perform the endoscopic suturing procedure using the Overstich device, a revolutionary technique assisting with weight loss, and the Stretta oesophagus reconstruction operation for post-obesity surgery reflux. He also became the first in the East Midlands to implant the LINX System device for acid reflux.
Mr. Sutton graduated with an MBBCh in Medicine in 1993 from the College of Medicine at the University of Wales, followed by junior surgical training in South Wales. He later completed his senior surgical training and higher degree in cancer research in Leicester. He gained specialist experience in upper gastrointestinal and obesity surgery with University Hospitals of Leeds, now Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, and trained in laparoscopic gastric cancer surgery. Additionally, Mr. Sutton has international experience, having visited the Cancer Institute Hospital of the Japanese Foundation for Cancer Research in Tokyo.
With a special clinical interest in acid reflux treatment and weight loss, Mr. Sutton is a member of the UK Reflux Interest Group and a Fellow of the British Obesity Surgical Society. He was awarded the first surgical fellowship in the UK by the Society and also holds a certificate in laparoscopic obesity surgery from the European School of Laparoscopic Surgery in Brussels. In addition to surgical solutions, he now offers medical weight loss advice and treatments with Wegovy and Monjaro.
