Consultants Flock to Local Medical Centre

26 February 2013 - In as many weeks, six new consultants have joined The Westbourne Centre, a prestigious medical centre in Edgbaston, Birmingham.

Opened in January 2009 with state-of-the-art operating theatre and treatment rooms, The Westbourne Centre brings together a diverse group of specialists in such areas as ophthalmology, maxillo-facial and dental surgery, dermatology, orthopaedics, plastic and vascular surgery.

The recent increase in clinicians joining The Westbourne Centre echoes the increase in enquiries the Centre is receiving for dental implants, non-surgical weight loss and bunion removal. “December and January are typically slower months for pre-planned medical procedures,” notes acting general manager, Fiona Brown. “But we have been extremely busy with the addition of six new consultants, two of whom are starting clinics unique to the UK.”

Bunion Surgery at The Westbourne Centre

A bunion is a bony lump on the side of the foot at the base of the big toe, associated with the big toe pointing more to the side rather than straight ahead. It may be painful and make it difficult to wear certain shoes. Different surgical procedures can be used to treat this condition and our Consultants, Alastair Marsh and Helen Williams, will advise the most appropriate for you. Only rarely will your foot be in plaster after an operation and you will usually walk out of the clinic using crutches.

FREE bunion treatment is available through NHS Choose and Book. Ask you GP if they can refer you to The Westbourne Centre through this system, it is that simple.

Call us on 0121 456 0880 if you have any questions.

Get the facts about moles and skin cancer

Most skin cancers are caused by damage from UV (ultraviolet) rays in sunlight. These cancers could be prevented if we protect ourselves from the sun. The number of cases has almost tripled since the early 1980's; in fact, there are more skin cancer deaths in the UK than in Australia, even though Australia has more cases of the disease!

Here at The Westbourne Centre, we feel that early detection is the key to saving lives and an annual Skin Screen is recommended. Our specialist nurse will carry out a 'top-to-toe' visual assesment and using the latest digital computerised technology, analyse any moles that need a closer look. If necessary, a referral will be made to one of our Consultant Surgeons, who will make a decision on whether the mole needs to be removed and sent for further investigation.
