Biography

Mr Brett Knowles is a general surgeon with expertise in the management of benign and malignant liver, pancreatic and biliary disorders. He also has a clinical interest in cancer surgery, advanced laparoscopic procedures, hernia surgery and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) as well as therapeutic and diagnostic upper gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy and stenting.

Brett completed his general surgical training at Royal Melbourne Hospital in 2007, before carrying out subspecialty training in upper GI and hepatobiliary surgery at Box Hill Hospital. He then pursued two additional fellowships internationally: a clinical fellowship in hepatobiliary and transplantation surgery at the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh, and a clinical and research fellowship in the Hepatobiliary Unit at Basingstoke Hospital.
