Dr Chris Berney
Advanced laparoscopic surgery, also known as keyhole surgery is a safe and precise technique that sees patients returning to near normal activities within days. Its aim is to perform various surgical procedures into the abdominal cavity via tubes (or ports) inserted through small skin incisions, using minimally invasive techniques such as fibre optic devices and specialized surgical instruments.
Dr Berney has realised the importance of ongoing developments of new skills in this innovative field for the benefit of his patients, and has made the use of laparoscopic techniques a priority in his practice whenever possible.
Beside his advanced laparoscopic surgery subspecialty, he also performs endocrine surgery (thyroid gland, parathyroid gland) and endoscopic procedures such as gastroscopies and colonoscopies.
Dr Berney is committed to delivering high quality service and providing his full attention and a thorough analysis of individual surgical problems. He is dedicated to find the most appropriate and less invasive approach in order to minimise the impact of surgery for his patients.
Dr Berney is also fluent in French and would be very happy to take care of patients of the French speaking community who feel more at ease in communicating in their native language.
He has appointments at the Prince of Wales Private, Sydney Private and Bankstown Hospitals and has a conjoint appointment as a Senior Lecturer with the University of NSW. To find out more about Dr Chris Berney’s practices, please click here.
