We have a whole series of planned open evenings lined up for 2014, which I hope will prove to be as popular as the ones we have held so far! Please contact Caroline on 01892 536 960 to register your interest. TUESDAY 11th FEBRUARY  – ‘For the future of your skin’ Worrying about wrinkles? Frightened […]

September and October have been incredibly busy, clinically, as well as with conferences and dealing with the press. I was at a very informative BAAPS conference and subsequently an invited speaker at the aesthetic breast symposium at the Royal Society of Medicine as well as the big aesthetic conference held in October at Olympia (http://www.ccr-expo.com/)!

I am really looking forward to hosting our first GP education evening at the new practice this Thursday evening. I will be giving a presentation that covers skin cancer, scars, wound healing and more – all of which I very much will be of use to those attending. Darryl Coombes, my colleague who is a […]

Lots of work is being done at Purity Bridge finalising the details for the launch event we are having at the end of next week to celebrate our opening. We really wanted to say thank you to everyone who has had a part in getting the clinic off the ground and is continuing to support […]

What is extraordinary about the 6-week consultation? It is that virtually every patient has “forgotten” their old body and how it was pre-surgery. Whether it is a facelift, a breast operation or a tummy tuck, it never ceases to amaze me how quick the human brain is to adopt the new body image as “having […]

I felt my heart sink a little while ago during a breast augmentation consult – very near the beginning of the consultation the young lady sitting across from me said (and I quote); “well, all my friends have 280s or 300s, so I want at least 350s so I can have bigger implants than all […]

Whilst every plastic surgeon should strive for perfection all the time (in fact, that should be a personality trait of a plastic surgeon!), of course, there are times that we get the suboptimal result. This may be because of a post-operative complication, or for some other reason. As a result, every plastic surgeon will have […]

We have now been ensconced in the new clinic (Purity Bridge at Tunbridge Wells Plastic Surgery) since early June, and things are going from strength to strength. After the inevitable teething problems and minor glitches (and I apologise if anyone’s communication with the practice was detrimentally effected) we are feeling much more at home at […]

Please come and join me and the team for our first public open evening at Purity Bridge on 18th July. I will be giving short talk about the creation of the new clinic, and what we are aiming to achieve. Other short talks will be given by other members of the team, including Sue our […]

Right now we are in the middle of a very exciting practice move within Tunbridge Wells (apologies for any temporary disruption!). We are moving to a beautiful period clinic in the middle of the town on Mount Ephraim. It offers a unique opportunity to open an independent private clinic within which I can provide the […]

I am extremely grateful to this patient for sharing her experience on my website – I hope that other patients considering a facelift find it reassuring and helpful. I had been unhappy with my appearance for a couple of years.  Having realised the big 60 was on the horizon I had done all I could to […]

The new year continues to keep us all busy in the practice. Grace has joined the team to help Clare with the back office side of things when the office gets busy. Louise is continuing to add all these updates to the website as well as do all of our bookkeeping. As for me – […]
