About Miss Rakhee Nayar

Miss Rakhee Nayar is a highly skilled consultant plastic surgeon in the north west. She is one of very few plastic surgery-trained and Mohs surgery-trained consultants. She is located in the north west of England, and frequently consults with patients from any part of the UK and beyond. With a broad spectrum of expertise, she is renowned for her proficiency in Mohs microsurgery, skin cancer treatment, facial reconstruction, addressing skin lesions, and tackling skin cancer, particularly on the face, including basal cell carcinoma. Miss Nayar grew up and went to school in Manchester. She commenced her medical studies at the University of Liverpool, graduating with an MBChB with Honors in 2004. She chose to undertake further studies due to her interest in cancer, obtaining an MD from the School of Cancer Studies at the same university in 2015. Furthermore, she was awarded an MRCS from the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh in 2008 and a diploma in hand surgery (EBHS) by the Federation of European Societies for Surgery of the Hand. The latter allows her the unique ability to offer Mohs skin cancer surgery for the hand in order to preserve and maintain function, by limiting the surgical defect where possible. In addition to her clinical roles, Miss Nayar is actively engaged in teaching and research. She serves as a teacher and trainer for junior doctors and surgeons within the NHS. Her contributions to the academic community extend beyond her teaching roles, as she has been widely published and presented her research at both national and international levels. Furthermore, Miss Nayar is actively involved in public organisations, holding the position of National Chairwoman for Mohs training within the Trainee Interface Group (TIG). She is also a proud member of esteemed organisations such as the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh and the British Association of Plastic, Reconstructive, Aesthetic Surgeons (BAPRAS).
