Professional Biography
Mr Neil Johns is a Consultant Oncoplastic and Reconstructive Breast Surgeon. He is adept at incorporating the latest plastic surgical techniques in the management of breast disease, enabling the best cosmetic outcome after surgery. {{ label }}
Mr Johns completed his specialist breast surgery training in the world renowned Edinburgh Breast Unit. He went on to complete the prestigious National Oncoplastic Breast Fellowship, regarded as the gold standard for breast reconstructive training in the UK at the Royal Free Hospital plastic surgery department, London.
Mr Johns treats all aspects of breast disease, benign or cancerous, and patients with a family history of breast cancer. He ultilises the latest oncoplastic techniques such as therapeutic mammoplasty / mastopexy, partial breast reconstruction with lateral chest wall perforator flaps (such as LTAP and LiCAP), full breast reconstruction with implant, LD muscle flap, and lipofilling techniques.
He feels passionate about being able to offer the most contemporary management of breast cancer to his patients and provides a clear, understandable, and holistic approach to personalise each individual patient’s management plan.
Other specialist interests include Screen-detected breast cancer, newer localisation techniques, patients with Family History of Breast Cancer & Risk-Reducing Surgery, benign breast conditions including all symptoms affecting women of all ages. He is widely published in the field of cancer cachexia, and aspects of breast disease.
Mr Johns offers a ‘One-Stop Diagnostic’ clinic and is happy to see all patients with breast symptoms with or without a referral on an insured or self-funded basis.
Mr Johns’ philosophy is to utilise oncoplastic breast surgical techniques to push the boundaries of breast conserving surgery by being able to excise large areas of the breast which provides the best oncological outcome, and at the same time being able to reshape or rebuild the breast to provide the best aesthetic outcomes. He is one of the few who regularly performs partial breast reconstruction with a fat only flap (chest wall perforator flap) following large lumpectomy thus maintaining breast shape and avoiding mastectomy in many case
