I have had all my surgical training in Auckland having rotated through the hospitals in Auckland since 1985. I passed the FRACS in General Surgery in 1993 and was a Consultant Surgeon at Auckland Public Hospital prior to being selected into the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons Postfellowship Vascular Programme. I spent the first year of my Vascular Fellowship at the Royal Melbourne Hospital, training under, De Bakey and Crawford trained Vascular surgeons and the second year at the Princess Alexandra Hospital in Brisbane. I passed the FRACS in Vascular Surgeryin 1998, and am the first New Zealand Surgeon to obtain this fellowship by examination.
