Mr David R Gateley MA FRCS FRCS (Plast)
Consultant Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeon
I studied medicine at Downing College, Cambridge and Kings College Hospital, London, qualifying in 1984. I trained in General Surgery, Orthopaedics and Neurosurgery for five years before starting a career in plastic surgery in 1989. As well as operating at Roehampton, The Lister and Guys and St Thomass Hospitals, I gained a Hand and Microsurgery Fellowship in the USA, receiving certification of higher surgical training in plastic surgery in 1996.
Since 1997, I have been Consultant Plastic Surgeon at St. Georges Hospital in Tooting, Europes largest teaching hospital. Here, I am training the countrys next generation of plastic surgeons as part of my continuing commitment to the NHS.
In addition to being a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons, I am a member of the British Association of Plastic Surgeons and British Society for Surgery of the Hand.
My private interests are in aesthetic surgery, skin and hand surgery. The aesthetic surgery sector is changing rapidly with the National Care Standards being introduced in 2002 which regulate this speciality. Whilst there are many people offering plastic surgery, not all are fully accredited plastic surgeons. With a full training in plastic surgery both in the UK and USA, I feel I am best placed to advise patients on the risks, as well as the benefits of aesthetic surgery.
