About Dr Hatrick
Dr Andrew Hatrick is a UK consultant radiologist with over 35 years in clinical medicine and 25 years as a consultant, based at Frimley Park Hospital NHS Trust and Royal Surrey Hospital NHS Trust in Surrey. He graduated in medicine from Cambridge University in 1991 and undertook his radiology training at Guy's and St Thomas Hospital, completing a specialist fellowship in interventional radiology and abdominal imaging at the University of Toronto before returning for further fellowship experience at Guy's and St Thomas and Great Ormond Street Hospital. He was appointed consultant radiologist at Frimley Park Hospital in 2000.
His clinical focus spans interventional and vascular radiology, hepatobiliary and abdominal imaging, cardiac CT, and spinal intervention. He is the team radiologist at the Surrey Vein Clinic, providing specialist vascular imaging for conditions including varicose veins and pelvic venous disorders, and holds the European Board of Interventional Radiology (EBIR) qualification - an internationally recognised standard of excellence in image-guided interventional techniques.
Dr Hatrick is co-editor of Diagnostic Imaging (7th Edition), published by Wiley-Blackwell in 2013. A standard reference text used in UK and international medical training, the book - first published in 1981 - is one of the most widely read radiology textbooks in clinical education. His involvement as editor reflects his standing as a senior figure in UK diagnostic radiology.
He practises privately at Spire Clare Park Hospital, Nuffield Health Guildford and the Parkside Suite Frimley, and brings to Doctorum over two decades of consultant-level expertise spanning the full breadth of diagnostic and interventional radiology.
