Oral Cancer & Cancers of The Head & Neck
My main focus is on high quality care of Cancer of the Head and Neck. This may include anything from Oral cancer screening to complex resective and reconstructive surgery for Head & Neck Cancer.
If you are concerned that you are at risk of Oral Cancer, screening may only involve a careful examination of your mouth, throat and neck along with appropriate tests such as ultrasound or MRI/CT scanning if indicated.
Head and neck cancer includes mouth, facial, throat, neck, salivary gland and thyroid cancer. I am experienced with all these cancer sites and when required work with trusted colleagues in a team approach.
I have more than 15 years experience of treating Head & Neck cancer and pride myself on attention to detail, with low morbidity surgery and very personalised care using up to date techniques. I only rely on trusted colleagues for diagnostic, anaesthetic, specialist nursing and post operative care.
I am part of a Regional Cancer Service which treats around 300 new cases per year so have a depth of experience which is broad and pragmatic in its approach.
I offer VIP treatment of cancers and have had patients many travel from overseas for this specialist care. If required 'Whole Package care' can be offered, which includes advice for organisation of air and overland travel to Bristol, advice for accomodation during pre-operative scanning and for recuperation following your surgery.
Your surgery can be carried out in excellent facilities including the full backup of intensive care if required for complex surgery such as microvascular reconstruction.
If overseas and considering your location for treatment please contact my Personal assistant Claire Roberts to discuss how we may offer above and beyond what you may get elsewhere.
