Biography

Dr Chris Gillespie graduated from the University of Auckland in 2000 and spent his first intern and resident years in Gisborne, New Zealand, as well as working in Scotland and Ireland in emergency medicine and gynaecology roles. Subsequent general surgical training was undertaken at St Vincent's Hospital in Melbourne, from 2004-2011 including one year spent at King's College Hospital in London for emergency and intensive care rotations.

Following this Dr Gillespie completed a two-year accredited post-fellowship training programme in colorectal surgery, under the Colorectal Surgical Society of Australia & New Zealand (CSSANZ). These years were spent at Auckland City Hospital and the Gold Coast Hospital. Since completing colorectal training he has held appointments at Mater Private Hospital, Princess Alexandra Hospital, Queen Elizabeth II Hospital and Logan Hospital, and is a member of the CSSANZ.

He was awarded the CSSANZ Travelling Fellowship in 2012 with clinical visits to St Mark's Hospital, Oxford, and Basingstoke Hospitals in the UK. He is accredited for general and colorectal surgery, colonoscopy and gastroscopy, and is Clinical Lead for the colorectal pelvic floor clinic at Queen Elizabeth II Hospital with skills in anorectal physiology assessment for functional colorectal disorders.
