She finished her Australian Colorectal Fellowship Program in 2008 where she worked in Australia, New Zealand and at the Cleveland Clinic in the United States. Whilst still in training, she has graduated with a Masters in Public Health from the University of Queensland.Susan's experience spans the spectrum of laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery, hereditary colorectal cancer syndromes, colonoscopy, anorectal and pelvic floor disorders. She also has an interest in advanced minimally invasive surgery including VAAFT and HALRAR. As a female colorectal surgical specialist she manages a pelvic floor laboratory which evaluates and offers treatment for pelvic disorders including faecal incontinence, obstructed defecation and prolapse. Susan understands the sensitive nature of these disorders and therefore offers a female only service on request.
