Mr Davies is a specialist surgeon with particular expertise in minimally invasive treatments. These include the use of modern approaches to treating haemorrhoids (piles) and the use of laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery for colorectal cancer, inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis) and diverticular disease. This approach has the advantages of smaller scars, less pain, a quicker recovery with less time in hospital and a faster return to normal activities/work. It is likely to result in fewer adhesions (scar tissue) inside the abdomen as well as fewer wound complications (infection, hernias). His results have been published, as well as presented in the UK and internationally.
