About Mr Dalli
Mr Jeffrey Dalli is a Consultant General Surgeon with a special interest in oncoplastic breast surgery. He sees patients at LifeScan in Naxxar for breast and general surgical consultations, and works as a consultant general surgeon at Mater Dei Hospital and Gozo General Hospital.
He trained in medicine and general surgery in Malta, at the University of Malta and Mater Dei Hospital, then completed subspecialty training in oncoplastic breast surgery in Sheffield through the NHS TIG fellowship. He went on to work as a Consultant Oncoplastic Breast Surgeon in the North West of England, where he was also clinical and research lead.
His breast practice covers the diagnosis and treatment of breast disease, including surgery for cancers of the breast and armpit, and follow-up after breast cancer surgery. He offers reconstruction, including therapeutic mammoplasty, implant-based reconstruction and flap reconstruction, and for people carrying a BRCA gene mutation, risk-reducing mastectomy with immediate reconstruction.
His aesthetic work includes breast enlargement, reduction and lift, either for cosmetic reasons or to match the other breast after cancer surgery. He is also trained in non-surgical aesthetic treatments such as Botox and fillers.
As a general surgeon, he diagnoses and treats abdominal conditions and performs skin operations under local anaesthetic, gastrointestinal endoscopy, hernia repair and abdominal operations, including aesthetic abdominal surgery.
