Anaesthetics
Vascular, thoracic and hepato-biliary anaesthesia
Dr Kukreja joined the Trust as a consultant anaesthetist in April 2013 and provides anaesthesia for patients undergoing major general surgery. Previously, he spent two years at the University of Michigan as an attending anaesthesiologist, providing anaesthesia for patients undergoing complex vascular surgery and liver transplantation.
Dr Kukreja holds regular pre-assessment clinics where patients are seen and optimised prior to surgery, in order to reduce the risk of complications. He is responsible for the running and design of the anaesthetic department website.
At present (summer 2014), Dr Kukreja is implementing the enhanced recovery programme for patients undergoing vascular surgery procedures. He has a particular interest in patients undergoing vascular, thoracic and hepato-biliary surgery.
