Byron is a Gastroenterologist with a particular interest in endoscopy (gastroscopy and colonoscopy) for the early detection of cancer in the oesophagus, stomach and colon.
Byron has a profound understanding of the complexities of the digestive system and a passion for patient care. He is deeply committed to patient education and empowerment, taking the time to explain diagnosis, treatment options, and preventative measures.
At the heart of Byron's expertise lies his specialised training in Gastroenterology and Internal Medicine which he developed during his postgraduate training in the UK. This included a period of research exploring the factors which predispose to oesophageal cancer such as Barrett's oesophagus. Furthermore, he has done research, presented at international conferences and published in peer reviewed journals on different aspects of gastroenterology including disorders of gut-brain interaction (e.g. irritable bowel syndrome), gastro-oesophageal reflux disease and Inflammatory Bowel Disease (Crohn's and Ulcerative Colitis).
