Nationally recognised for his surgical management of patients with advanced and recurrent rectal cancer, Mr. McArthur handles tertiary referrals from across the UK and internationally.

In 2011, Mr. McArthur was appointed Consultant General and Colorectal Surgeon at Heart of England NHS Foundation Trust, continuing in this role at University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Trust from 2018.

Mr. McArthur founded The Birmingham Colorectal Clinic to provide high-quality private healthcare for patients with colorectal and general surgical conditions. His goal is to create a comfortable environment where patients can discuss their symptoms openly and receive tailored treatment options that suit their individual needs.

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