All our surgeons have undergone further subspecialist training in colorectal, oesophagogastric, or hepatobiliary surgery at some of the highest calibre units internationally including: MD Anderson Cancer Center (Houston), Memorial Sloan Kettering (New York), and Guys & St Thomas Hospitals (London), and St Marks Hospital (London).

All surgeons also have substantive staff specialist appointments at The Royal Adelaide Hospital that see them hold key clinical, organisational and academic leadership positions. The ability to work closely across the public and private sectors fosters a highly collegiate environment, comprehensive multi-disciplinary care with 24/7 cover, and flexibility for complex presentations. Their close affiliation with the University of Adelaide, the South Australian Health and Medical Research Institute (SAHMRI), and UniSA's Centre for Cancer Biology fosters a vibrant academic environment that informs practice and allows access to cutting edge research and technology to improve patient care.
​
Our group is complemented by an experienced team of specialised dietitians - Alice Jay, Claire Nixon, and Emma Putrus - and physiotherapists with a pelvic floor focus - Jenny Phillips and Sonia Scharfbillig. The allied health team are all locally trained with established practices, and ensure that we are able to deliver a comprehensive package of care that covers all domains of health, illness, and the road to recovery.

Adelaide Private is based at St Andrews Medical Centre on South Terrace, with procedures being undertaken at several private hospitals around Adelaide including: St Andrews Hospital, Ashford Hospital and Western Hospital. Our surgeons also have very close links with many regional areas in South Australia including: Mt Barker, Stirling, Bordertown, Naracoorte, Port Augusta, Whyalla, Port Lincoln, Mount Gambier, and Broken Hill.
