Jon trained in the North East of England, at the largest surgical oesophago-gastric cancer centre in Europe. This was under Professor Griffin, one of the doyens of oesophageal surgery. He also spent time in Melbourne, Brisbane and Japan learning a variety of different surgical approaches. He has performed research amounting to a PhD: running a UK NHS funded multi-centre trial of palliative therapies in patients with oesophageal cancer. He speaks internationally on these topics and helped to set up the ‘Oesophagoose’ Oesophageal Cancer Awareness campaign in the UK.
