About Mr Imran Liaquat
Personal Profile
Mr Liaquat graduated from University of Glasgow Medical School in 2002 and did his Basic Surgical Training in the West of Scotland. After a year as a Registrar in London, where he worked at Kings College Hospital and St Georges Hospital, he came back to complete his Neurosurgical training in Scotland during which he trained in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Dundee.
He went back to St Georges Hospital to do a Sub-specialist Fellowship in Neurosurgery, where he gained experience in all aspects of General Neurosurgery and Neuro-oncology including awake craniotomy, fluorescence guided tumour resection and management of low grade gliomas. After the fellowship he returned to Edinburgh to take up a consultant post at the Western General Hospital.
His operative NHS practice includes management of emergency and elective spinal pathologies including degenerative spine, which makes up 50% of his operative workload, and he consults with around 500 patients a year with back and neck pain in his out-patient clinics.
In addition to General Neurosurgery, Mr Liaquat has a subspecialist interest in brain tumours and leads the Adult Neuro-oncology Surgical service.
