About Mr Neill Patani

GMC number: 6078267

Year qualified: 2003

Place of primary qualification: University of London

Mr Neill Patani is a Consultant Oncoplastic Breast Surgeon (UCLH), Honorary Associate Professor (UCL) and Postdoctoral Research Fellow (Francis Crick Institute). Mr Patani’s private practice is based exclusively at HCA Healthcare UK's, London Breast Institute, at the Princess Grace Hospital, where he provides specialist breast care, that is evidence-based and patient-centered.

Neill has expertise in the management of breast cancer and all aspects of benign disease, including breast pain, lumps, infection and risk-reduction strategies for patients with a family history. He has a particular interest in extending the scope of breast conserving surgery with oncoplastic techniques and de-escalation of breast and axillary surgery after neo-adjuvant therapy. Neill has experience with a range of breast reconstruction techniques, including nipple-sparing approaches and one-stage pre-pectoral implant reconstruction. He works closely with plastic surgeons for natural tissue reconstruction where possible.

Mr Patani has an academic interest in laboratory, translational and clinical breast cancer research and has received prestigious grants and funding from the Wolfson Foundation, Cancer Research UK and Medical Research Council. He was awarded 1st Class Honours for his BSc in Tumour Biology at UCL and completed his PhD in Breast Cancer at the Royal Marsden Hospital and Institute of Cancer Research. Working collaboratively with scientists, oncologists and radiologists, Neill is currently exploring how breast cancer metabolism can be targeted for functional imaging and novel therapies. He is also involved in clinical trials studying the optimal sequencing of breast cancer treatments and the de-escalation of surgery following neo-adjuvant therapy.

Neill plays an active role in teaching and training. He is currently Educational Lead for the Breast Service at UCLH, and previously a Faculty Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England and National Representative at the Oncoplastic Breast Surgery Training Interface Group. He was a Surgical Teaching Fellow for Imperial College & Anatomy Demonstrator at UCL Medical School.
