Professional statement

Mr Radu Mihai is an expert consultant endocrine surgeon specialising in sarcoma, sarcoma surgery, thyroid, parathyroid and adrenal surgery, hernia surgery and laparoscopic cholecystectomy currently practising in Oxford. In addition, he provides surgery for retroperitoneal sarcomas within the Oxford Sarcoma MDT.

Mr Mihai is the president of the British Association of Endocrine and Thyroid Surgeons. Although adult operations represent the vast majority of his work, he regularly sees children who need thyroid or parathyroid operations and has an additional interest in familial endocrine diseases (MEN-1 and MEN-2 syndromes).

After graduating from medical school in 1991, he spent three years training in clinical endocrinology before moving to the UK and obtaining a PhD in endocrine surgery from Bristol University in 1998. He completed all surgical training in the UK, working as a lecturer of surgery at Bristol University and a fellow in endocrine surgery in Oxford.

In 2007, he was then appointed as a consultant endocrine surgeon at the Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. He is the director of Research for the European Society of Endocrine Surgeons and a co-author of the European guidelines for the treatment of adrenocortical cancer and the use of neuromonitoring in thyroid surgery.

To date, he has performed over 400 laparoscopic and retroperitoneoscopic adrenal operations for benign adrenal tumours and metastatic disease. He has a strong commitment to postgraduate education and is regularly invited to teach students, postgraduate doctors and surgical trainees. For the last 10 years, he has been an examiner for the European Fellowship in Endocrine Surgery. In 2005, he was nominated Hunterian Professor of Surgery by the Royal College of Surgeons.
