Welcome to the Wakefield Clinic

The Wakefield Clinic is a private clinic, run by Professor Richard Stubbs, specialising in the surgical treatment of diseases of the upper gastrointestinal tract such as those listed below. Many of the treatments offered are new and innovative and the Clinic has since its inception in 1991 acquired a national and even international reputation for some of these, particularly in the field of liver cancer and severe obesity. The Wakefield Clinic is located within and forms an important part of Wakefield Hospital's Gastroenterology Centre.

The clinic is actively involved in postgraduate teaching and research activity. It has its own research laboratory in which up to ten scientists and research officers work at any one time.
