About

Segun qualified from Glasgow University in 1999, and trained in General Surgery in the West of Scotland, specialising in Colorectal Surgery. He then completed a year-long training fellowship in keyhole surgery for bowel cancer at Barretos Cancer Hospital, Brazil, the largest cancer hospital in Latin America. He has been a consultant at University Hospital Wishaw since 2012, and is the current NHS Lanarkshire Clinical Lead for Colorectal Cancer.

Segun is interested in conditions affecting the abdomen, specialising in endoscopic and keyhole techniques to treat these, particularly conditions affecting the bowels and back passage. He is interested not only in surgical solutions for the patient, but also aims to improve patients’ quality of life, where their conditions or symptoms are compromising this.
