Mr Simon Fisher studied medicine at Emmanuel College, Cambridge, graduating in Medicine and Pharmacology in 1999, before studying Clinical Medicine at University College, London.
After completing his PhD at the University of London, Mr Fisher began his surgical training, working in Cambridge for 2 years. He then undertook his Higher Surgical Specialist Training, completing a further 7 years on the South West Rotation. This included a year at the Birmingham Liver Unit gaining experience in liver and pancreas surgery and liver transplant. After achieving a Fellowship from the Royal College of Surgeons of England and entry on to the Specialist Register, Mr Fisher completed a further fellowship at the Liver Unit in Aintree, Liverpool.
Mr Fisher is currently establishing a regional centre at New Cross Hospital for complex pancreatitis, gallbladder and bile duct disease serving the West Midlands and West Country.
At the Nuffield Health Wolverhampton Hospital, Mr Fisher provides care for patients with Upper GI, Hepatobiliary and General Surgery problems. In particular, Gallbladder and Gallstone disease; Gastro-oesophageal Reflux Disease (GORD) and hernia repair. He performs both laparoscopic (key-hole) and open surgery.
I found Mr Fisher to be a lovely man and an excellent surgeon. He explained my procedure and told me what to expect, and how I would feel afterwards. I had every confidence in him. Post-op, I feel great and have minimal scarring - thank you.

I cannot fault Mr Fisher, he has a very positive approach to his work. He explained everything very well to me, including what was happening, the reason why, and what to expect from the surgery/recovery period, all of which were spot on. Highly recommend.

I was extremely impressed with Mr Fisher. The whole experience was very smooth and professional. I particularly appreciated his explanation of the procedure, my options, and what would happen during the operation and post-op recovery. The operation itself was a complete success and full recovery has resulted. The follow-up consultation some weeks after the operation was also a success. I very strongly recommend Mr Fisher to anyone considering surgery.
