I am a highly qualified and experienced expert in General Surgery, Oncology, and Vascular Surgery, with over 45 years of invaluable practice. Based in Crook, Durham, United Kingdom, I am fluent in English and available to assist you via video and audio online medical consultations.
Throughout my extensive career, I have gained significant experience in performing complex surgeries, including those for pancreatic carcinoma. I continuously strive to improve my skills and knowledge to provide the best outcomes for my patients. A critical part of my practice is understanding my own strengths and limitations, as well as recognizing the abilities of my team members.
Effective surgical practice requires strong teamwork, where all members are aligned with the mission and purpose of the task. I work to ensure that every team member understands the goals and direction, ensuring we work cohesively toward the best outcomes for our patients.
Leadership in surgery is not just about technical expertise, but also about embodying personal qualities like sensitivity, patience, humility, and determination. These qualities, honed over years of professional and life experience, are essential for maintaining efficiency, productivity, and harmony within the team, especially during complex procedures.
In surgery, making sound and timely decisions requires not only knowledge and experience but also maturity, common sense, and a realistic approach. This is an ongoing process of self-improvement, which I believe is crucial for any surgeon. Like a good airline captain, a good surgeon must always be learning and adapting, constantly striving to enhance their skills and leadership.
