À propos

Profile

I am a highly experienced Consultant Laparoscopic Hepatobiliary (liver and gallbladder) Surgeon at Spire Norwich Hospital with extensive experience in advanced laparoscopic (keyhole) operations.

I am highly skilled in performing complex minimally invasive (keyhole) procedures such as cholecystectomy (removal of the gallbladder) and hernia repair (both keyhole and traditional ‘open’).

I have performed several thousand of these operations during the last 35 years of my practice and have achieved excellent results with an exceptionally low complication rate, world-class outcomes and a very high level of patient satisfaction.

I qualified in 1988 from the University of Nottingham and completed my junior doctor training in the Trent region. I then pursued specialist surgical training primarily in Leicester, complemented by nearly three years of advanced training in Adelaide, South Australia. This international experience allowed me to develop a broad and in-depth understanding of complex laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery.

Areas of expertise include:


Hernia surgery (laparoscopic and more traditional 'open' techniques)

Gallbladder and gallstone removal

Pancreatic and biliary surgery

Laparoscopic (keyhole) investigations and treatments


Home life is busy for me as I enjoy spending as much time as possible with my 3 amazing children.

We are lucky to live on an old farm in South Norfolk where I very much value the fresh air and open spaces,  exercising my dog and tending to livestock – when I’m not fixing up my old vintage tractor!

I love working with my hands and my passion is carpentry. I actually worked as a cabinet-maker’s apprentice before  deciding to apply to medical school all those years ago!

I have combined my love of the water with this passion and have built several wooden boats over the years although sadly at the moment I have little time to sail them!

Patient feedback

Recent feedback from some of my patients confirm that I am highly professional and have a very caring and compassionate approach to my patients and surgical practice:

'He showed a very professional, conscientious, and caring approach - I felt relaxed and comfortable with him. He responded clearly, and took time to deal with all my questions and concerns'

'Mr Wemyss-Holden is a excellent surgeon and very courteous and always kind to his patients . During my short stay I saw him at least 4 times and always had time to chat and re- assured me when I needed his professional help'

'A special thanks to my consultant, Mr Wemyss-Holden for a smooth and successful procedure'

'Highly professional all-round'

'Clear explanation of the medical problem and the best treatment. His professional but friendly manner made me feel confident to undergo the necessary operation without too much anxiety'

'He was very clear about what was required and the best course of action. Explained things so that I was able to make a clear decision'

'Excellent'

'He was excellent and very kind and friendly'

'I was well informed about the procedure and operation, I had complete conficidence in my consultant'

I found my consultant to be very informative and understanding, very pleasant and easy to talk to'

'Excellent, clear information given and I felt in safe hands. I am very grateful'

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

— Mr Simon Wemyss-Holden
