About Shaheel Chummun

Personal Profile

Mr Shaheel Chummun is a Consultant Plastic Surgeon, and sees patients from across the UK who seek his expertise in both aesthetic and reconstructive surgery.

At Bath Clinic, he offers a wide range of procedures to the face, breast and body, with a particular interest in rhinoplasty (nose surgery) and facial surgery. He is known for his thoughtful, patient-focused approach and ability to achieve natural, balanced results, and is a trusted plastic surgeon serving patients across the South-West.

Mr Chummun graduated in medicine in 2001 and began his surgical training soon after, becoming a Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England and Edinburgh in 2006. He went on to complete specialist plastic surgery training across the UK and internationally, gaining experience at renowned centres in Edinburgh, Bristol, Exeter, Plymouth, Leeds, London, and the Australian Craniofacial Unit in Adelaide. He was awarded the FRCS(Plast) in 2014 and entered the GMC Specialist Register for Plastic Surgery in 2016. To further refine his skills in aesthetic surgery, Mr Chummun completed two highly regarded fellowships at The London Clinic and The Cadogan Clinic in Chelsea, supported by the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS) and the Scar Free Foundation. These fellowships focused on advanced techniques in facial rejuvenation, rhinoplasty, breast reshaping, and body contouring — areas he continues to specialise in today.

Alongside his private practice, Mr Chummun is a Consultant Cleft and Plastic Surgeon at the South West Cleft Service (University Hospitals Bristol NHS Trust), where he manages patients with cleft lip and palate from across the region. He is the only plastic surgeon in the South West performing complex cleft rhinoplasty within the NHS and is among a small number of UK surgeons with expertise in revisional aesthetic and reconstructive rhinoplasty. These procedures often involve correcting previous surgery or addressing significant structural challenges, requiring both advanced technical skill and a refined aesthetic approach.

In addition to his clinical practice, Mr Chummun has a strong academic and educational background. He has published over 40 peer-reviewed articles in plastic surgery journals and presents regularly at national and international conferences. He is also active in teaching, training both junior doctors and future plastic surgeons at undergraduate and postgraduate level.

Patients often comment on his calm, honest manner and his ability to explain procedures clearly, helping them feel informed and supported at every stage of their surgical journey. Whether correcting a structural concern or enhancing aesthetic form, Mr Chummun’s goal is always to deliver safe, personalised care to the highest standards.

One recent rhinoplasty patient commented: “I recently underwent rhinoplasty, and I can confidently say I was in the very best hands with Mr Chummun. From the beginning, I had absolutely no doubt in his ability. His calm demeanor and extensive knowledge made me feel at ease throughout the entire process.” — Google Review for Mr Shaheel Chummun
