After obtaining his medical degrees and being selected into surgical training, he embarked on a further fifteen years of rigorous general and plastic surgery training including full-time surgical research at the Royal North Shore Hospital, before being awarded his FRACS (Plastics) under the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons, the only government recognised body for training Surgeons in Australia. Upon successful completion of his Fellowship, he undertook a further post-training Fellowship in Micro-surgery and Aesthetic Surgery at St. Vincents Hospital in Sydney.
