Laparoscopic (Keyhole) gallbladder and biliary surgery

I have performed more than 800 lap cholecystectomy I also manage bile duct stones and pancreatic pseudocysts laparoscopically.

Laparoscopic (Keyhole ) Groin hernia surgery

All patients with groin hernia regardless of symptoms should be offered a consultation as the long term outcome of early operation is better than wait and watch policy even in asymptomatic hernia according to recently published international guidelines. I have a special interest in performing laparoscopic groin hernia operations. I have been to Belgium to train and learn new approaches in robotic surgery in groin hernia .

Abdominal wall hernia and complex abdominal wall reconstruction ( Laparoscopic/Open)

I adopt a multidisciplinary team approach to complex abdominal wall reconstruction including both open and minimally invasive techniques. Abdominal wall hernia result in poor quality of life due to poor abdominal wall function and surgical treatment can offer a significant improvement in quality of life. I offer Laparoscopic and open approaches to management of abdominal wall hernia, incisional hernia, umbilical and paraumbilical hernia. I have learnt new approaches in robotic surgery in abdominal wall hernia repair and reconstruction at specialist centres in Belgium .

Acute Surgery (Laparoscopic/Open)

I have a high volume practice im emergency surgery and perform laparoscopic appendicectomy, laparoscopic cholecystectomy , diagnostic laparoscopy for abdominal pain, small bowel resection, colectomy, laparoscopic duodenal perforated ulcer repair

Excision of skin lesions, surgical treatment of haemorrhoids and anal fissure.

Such a warm and friendly doctor, always listened to anything I had to say and he explained things clearly. I never felt like I was taking up his time, he was always willing to spend as long as needed to get everything right. Honestly the best experience I've ever had with a doctor. And the surgery went well and the scarring minimal. 20/10 would absolutely recommend. Best gallbladder surgeon in the UK for sure.

General (Internal) Medicine
I have looked after their patients

Mr Tapuria is a highly skilled General Surgeon, who is specialized on complex laparoscopic procedures. These include Cholecystectomy and abdominal hernia repairs (laparoscopic and open). He manages difficult cases with great success. Mr Tapuria deeply understands and takes care of the medical (nonsurgical) issues that his patients suffer from. His judgement and decision making is extraordinary. This leads for better patients' preparation undergoing surgical procedures and, thus, improves peri-operative safety. He never compromises patients care and always strives for the best of his patients. This relates to a choice of better equipment and materials for his procedures, as well as to planning of after-care for his patients. Mr Tapuria is a very nice colleague and a great team player. It has always been a pleasure to work with him.
