A very specialised service highly tailored to the individual.

As a military plastic surgeon, Miss Cubison has considerable experience and expertise in the management of amputations, both primary amputation and also secondary problems associated with amputation stumps. 

To get the best out of a prosthetic limb it is important that the patient has a comfortable, well fitted stump, without problems such as abnormal bone or neuroma (abnormal nerve growth formation). All these things can be very difficult to work around simply by changing the prosthetics and often a surgical approach is necessary. Miss Cubison works as part of a multi-disciplinary team to manage problems with amputation stumps and works closely with pain management specialists, psychologists and prosthetic limb fitting specialists, as well as a variety of physiotherapists and occupational therapists to ensure that the patient can get back ‘on-legs’ as soon as practical. 

The appearance of a patient's breasts is a very personal thing, and often patients find it difficult to discuss their concerns. We hope that in the personal yet informal setting of a consultation with Miss Cubison you will feel comfortable enough to describe exactly what your concerns are, so that she can help you to plan surgery, if this is appropriate for you.

Miss Cubison can perform a number of procedures from formal abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) to procedures such as apronectomy, and removal of excess skin from the lower abdomen, as well as excess tissue from other areas such as the arms (bracheoplasty) and the thighs (thigh lift). Liposuction can also be performed in many areas to improve body contour and help to remove troublesome areas of fat

If you have an existing scar, from whatever cause, this may be troublesome for you and there are often techniques that can be used to improve the appearance of your scar. Miss Cubison uses a variety of techniques from massage and silicone, through to surgical scar revision involving a number of different treatment options depending on the type of scar and your skin type.

Tattoos may be appropriately removed using a laser, however, there are also some tattoos that are more appropriately removed using techniques such as surgical excision or formal re-surfacing. How effective this process is depends on the type of tattoo and its colour and shape.

Miss Cubison is experienced in treating a variety of forms of trauma, including hand injuries, skin loss to the lower limbs, and major reconstruction after road traffic accidents. Although it is difficult to give prices for these kind of cases, as they are very individual, if you have an acute injury and are insured please do contact us as soon as possible, as it may well be possible to arrange for you to have your treatment at the McIndoe Surgical Centre on an Urgent basis, although as an isolated reconstructive hospital we are not able to provide acute care for complex major trauma.

There are many causes for lumps and bumps, from simple moles that you may have had all your life, through to more concerning skin cancers. Miss Cubison provides a comprehensive service to remove all sizes of lesions, from the smallest mole through to the more complex skin cancers. This can frequently be done on a "See and Do" basis at your first consultation, as an Outpatient, but may require a formal in-patient stay in more complicated cases.

We have a histopathology service to analyse tissue that is removed, if this is medically necessary, Miss Cubison will be happy to advise you as to whether your mole should be sent for pathology assessment, as this is not automatically necessary in every case, and does incur an extra cost.
