Consultants


Ian Gooding
Gastroenterology and General Medicine
Colchester Hospital
I qualified as a doctor in 1995 from Cambridge University and was appointed to Colchester as a Consultant in 2008. I trained as a registrar in the London deanery, including posts at Hammersmith and St Mary’s Hospitals.
My areas of special interest are interventional endoscopy (using endoscopy for treatments such as stent placement and removal of gallstones), diseases of the bile duct and pancreas, difficulties with swallowing caused by muscular problems in the oesophagus and nutritional support.
