Professional profile
Andrew Mellington is a UK trained Consultant Plastic Surgeon and is on the GMC’s specialist register for plastic surgery.
He qualified in medicine from Oxford University and, after a period working in New Zealand, returned to the UK to train in surgery. During early surgical training, Andrew undertook a Master’s Degree in Surgical Science at Imperial College London for which he was awarded the highest distinction in his year.
His higher plastic surgery training was based in London and the South East. In 2012, Andrew was awarded the Intercollegiate Fellowship in Plastic Surgery. He then undertook specialist fellowships in cosmetic surgery at The London Clinic, in cancer reconstruction at The Royal Marsden Hospital, in cancer reconstruction and trauma at Guys and St Thomas’ Hospitals and Queen Victoria Hospital and in trauma at the Major Trauma Centre in Brighton. These fellowships have enabled Andrew to develop a broad practice, with skills in a wide range of reconstructive and aesthetic procedures.
Andrew’s main practice at the Queen Victoria Hospital is breast reconstruction. He works closely with the breast cancer service in Brighton and performs a wide range of general plastic surgery procedures. He holds an Honorary Consultant appointment at the Major Trauma Centre of Brighton University Hospital, where he is the clinical lead for plastic surgery. Along with a team of consultant colleagues, he provides specialised reconstructive services focusing on lower limb trauma and reconstruction of complex wounds.
Andrew’s private practice focuses on 3 mains areas: aesthetic surgery of the body and breast, microsurgical breast reconstruction and reconstructive chest surgery for both female-to-male and male-to-female gender affirmation.
