Mr Amit Patel is a Consultant Laparoscopic General and Colorectal Surgeon whose main private practice is based at Droitwich Spa Hospital. He also works within Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust, providing specialist care for patients with general surgical, colorectal, and pelvic floor conditions.
He specialises in minimally invasive (keyhole) surgery, using advanced laparoscopic techniques to help improve recovery, reduce discomfort, and achieve better outcomes for patients.
Mr Patel was appointed as a Consultant in 2014 following specialist training in coloproctology, surgical oncology, and general surgery in London.
He graduated with honours from St George’s, University of London, where he was also awarded undergraduate prizes for his academic achievements.
He completed his postgraduate surgical training in London, including two years of research at the Department of Surgery at University College London. During this time, he achieved a Master’s degree and developed a strong interest in advancing surgical techniques.
Mr Patel has maintained an active academic career, publishing extensively in peer-reviewed surgical journals.
He completed an advanced laparoscopic colorectal fellowship at the internationally recognised St Mark’s Hospital under Professor Robin Kennedy.
This specialist training provided extensive experience in managing complex colorectal conditions and tertiary referrals from across the UK.
Since becoming a Consultant, Mr Patel has helped introduce and develop several specialist services in Worcestershire.
His work includes the development of:
- Day-case laparoscopic surgery
- Minimally invasive colorectal procedures
- Day-case haemorrhoid surgery
- Specialist pelvic floor services
He has also established a service for patients with complex pelvic floor conditions, including:
- Laparoscopic prolapse surgery
- Faecal incontinence management
- Obstructed defaecation disorders
These specialist services have improved local access to advanced colorectal care.
Mr Patel is committed to delivering high-quality, compassionate care. He takes time to understand each patient’s concerns and works with them to choose the most appropriate treatment option.Patient Feedback
"For years I had been putting off having my haemorrhoid discomfort addressed due to a fear of an excruciating procedure and long recovery time. When I did finally pluck up the courage, I chose Mr Patel based on his expertise in this field and his enthusiasm for non-traditional techniques. My faith was rewarded following THD surgery, from which I experienced only a couple of days discomfort; manageable with over the counter pain killers. Within a fortnight of rest I was back to normal, 100% cured, and left wondering why I had left it so long in the first place. Would absolutely recommend Mr Patel for anyone else suffering the same issues as I was." Stephen C.
