Always learning.
Turns out my wife’s tyres were looking a little bald before setting off on our 7 hour drive home this weekend!
Took the opportunity to upgrade her tyres to high speed Michelins to keep up with her heavy right foot!
Had the tyre guy take me through the wheel alignment process which was super interesting. It’s now performed using lasers rather than the old dial gauges and straight edges - 100% more accurate and can measure down to 0.001mm!

Happy Perioperative Nurses day!! Perioperative nurses keep our surgical lists running like clockwork! They are the nurses who see you and check you in when you first arrive, help the anaesthetists put you to sleep and wake you up after surgery, help the surgeon during your operation and are there caring for you when you wake up in recovery.
Thank you to all the wonderful nurses who look after me and all my patients - couldn’t do it without you 🫶🏽🙏🏽🙌🏽

Today marks another trip around the sun for me!

Feel very blessed to have been gifted homemade artwork from each of my kids for my birthday as a bit of a change from socks and un**es.

Interesting too how each of the artworks give a little bit of insight into each of their individual personalities. No prizes for guessing which kid most closely takes after her old man 😂

Gynaecomastia (male breast development) treated with liposuction and glandular pull through.

This common condition can be treated as a day surgery procedure with very little downtime.

A lovely gift from a patient of Dr Adrian who underwent removal of a large skin cancer from her leg. The defect was reconstructed with a local flap repair.
