Alison is a New Zealand trained General Surgeon with post fellowship specialist training in Breast surgery at the United Kingdom’s largest Breast unit in Edinburgh. Following this she spent 18 months working as a Consultant at the Edinburgh Breast Unit. This extended to running clinics at the Scottish Breast Screening Service and managing the unit’s surgical audit.

During her time in Edinburgh, Alison was part of a large multi-disciplinary team, managing women with breast cancer. In addition to this she attended all adjuvant treatments given to women with cancer. This has given her a unique understanding and appreciation of all aspects of a woman’s treatment, allowing her to better inform and support her patients.

Alison has extensive experience with new surgical techniques and treatment approaches for women with Breast cancer.
