Mr Christopher Wong: Consultant General Surgeon, Bristol and Cardiff

A Consultant Gastrointestinal and Endocrine Surgeon practising in Bristol and Cardiff with over 10 years experience of advanced laparoscopic surgery and the treatment of endocrine conditions.  

 

Mr Chris Wong is a Consultant Gastrointestinal and Endocrine Surgeon with a special interest in advanced laparoscopic, or keyhole, surgery. He operates from clinics in Bristol and Cardiff.

 

Having trained in general surgery at Cardiff, Bristol and in the South West he developed a specialist interest in gastrointestinal and endocrine surgery. Mr Wong has had extensive experience in pioneering new advanced techniques and procedures in laparoscopic minimally invasive surgery for the treatment of upper gastrointestinal and endocrine diseases.

Under the guidance of the late Prof. Farndon, Mr Wong was awarded a PhD for research into endocrine disease. He has received many prestigious grants and has had several book chapters published on the management of thyroid diseases in major surgical textbooks and surgical journals. After his research he returned to Cardiff to undergo further specialist training in endocrine surgery encompassing complicated thyroid diseases (benign, cancer and re-do surgery), parathyroidectomy and adrenal (laparoscopic) surgery.

 

Mr Wong provides a comprehensive surgical service with specialist treatment for gallstones including advance laparoscopic treatment for stones in the bile duct, gastro-oesophageal reflux disease, obesity, splenectomy and hernia. He is one of a handful of UK specialists who provides surgical care for the full spectrum of endocrine surgical diseases especially in complicated and re-do neck surgery.
