About Dr Patwinder Gill

Upper GI, Bariatric & Minimally Invasive Surgery


Dr Patwinder Gill obtained her medical degree in Monash University in 2008. Whilst completing her
surgical training at Royal Melbourne Hospital, Dr Gill developed an interest in Upper GI and
Hepatobiliary surgery.

 

Following the completion of her surgical training, Dr Gill undertook a year of
fellowship in Hepatobiliary Surgery at Royal Melbourne Hospital.

This provided Dr Gill with skills to manage complex surgical patients and built on the skills for minimally invasive surgery.

Dr Gill further developed this interest in her second year of fellowship, undertaking a minimally
invasive fellowship in Upper GI and Bariatric Surgery with Dr Candice Silverman, Dr King Wong and
Dr Michael Ghusn in Tweed Heads Hospital and John Flynn Hospital. She refined her skills in
laparoscopic hiatal hernia repair, laparoscopic inguinal and ventral hernia repair and commenced
her training in bariatric surgery.


The following year, Dr Gill undertook her third year of fellowship in Bariatric Surgery, at Box Hill
Hospital. During this time, Dr Gill was able to hone her skills further in minimally invasive bariatric
surgery, including revision bariatric surgery at this dedicated and high volume centre.


Dr Gill has an interest in Bariatric Surgery with experience in Sleeve Gastrectomy, Gastric Bypass
surgery and single anastomosis duodenal ileostomy (SADI/SIPS) procedures. She also performs
minimally invasive procedures such as laparoscopic inguinal hernia and ventral hernia repairs,
cholecystectomies (gallbladder surgery), hiatus hernia repairs and small bowel resections.
