Clinical Interests
Clinical Interests
Mr Irwin offers a comprehensive repertoire of plastic surgery and cosmetic procedures to those seeking to improve/alter their appearance. He has developed a personal interest and has an established reputation in breast reconstruction and cosmetic and plastic surgery of the breast. He is a valuable and respected member of the multi-disciplinary Breast Team in Cambridge. Other areas of expertise include facial cosmetic surgery and body contouring after weight loss including abdominoplasty, body lifts and liposuction.
Patients find Mr Irwin easy to talk to and approachable and that he communicates all relevant information clearly. In keeping with good clinical practice, Mr Irwin prefers to consult with all new patients at least twice; the second time at no extra charge. This allows time to think things over thoroughly, read the information leaflets given to you and make an informed decision on how to proceed.
