Ernest Allan MBChB, FRCR, FRCS

Dr Allan had extensive experience in surgery and radiotherapy before taking the pre-clinical research in photodynamic therapy from the Patterson Institute (now The Cancer Research UK Manchester Institute) and initiating a clinical research project. This developed into a pioneering clinical service for non-malanotic skin cancer that grew into a substantial clinic with a national and international reputation.

Dr Allan continued to work on the development of photodynamic medicine techniques to enable the successful treatment of a wider spectrum of patients. In consequence there are a growing number of patients coming from other parts of the country.
