The PubMed match is by abbreviated name and topic, so we cannot be certain every paper is by this surgeon.

What this doesn't tell you
Registration confirms specialist training. It can't tell you how skilled a surgeon is, how often they perform your procedure, or what your results will be. Those are questions for your consultation. Registers change, so confirm anything important with the register before you decide.
