About Dr Brown
Dr Kilian Brown is a specialist colorectal surgeon who treats patients with a wide range of colorectal conditions. He has particular expertise in advanced colorectal cancer, complex pelvic tumours and minimally invasive robotic surgery. He also manages haemorrhoids, diverticular disease and inflammatory bowel disease, and performs routine colonoscopy and endoscopy procedures.
After completing general surgical training in Sydney and qualifying as a Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons, Dr Brown undertook two years of subspecialty fellowship training in advanced colorectal surgery at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital and The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, one of the leading cancer centres in the United States. During this time, he specialised in complex pelvic cancer surgery, including pelvic exenteration, and minimally invasive robotic techniques.
Dr Brown is a Clinical Senior Lecturer at The University of Sydney, where he completed both his Masters and PhD. His research, based at the Surgical Outcomes Research Centre, focuses on improving outcomes for patients undergoing major surgery for advanced rectal cancer. More information about his research can be found at the University’s website.
