About Dr. Atalla

Dr. Atalla is a locally trained surgeon who has predominantly worked in and around Melbourne for over 12 years. He completed his specialist training in General surgery before heading overseas to further sub-specialize in bariatric surgery in a high-volume centre under the guidance of international leaders. During his time in Northshore hospital, Auckland NZ, he has refined his complex surgical expertise in both upper gastrointestinal/bariatric weight loss surgery and advanced laparoscopic skills. He routinely attends regular conferences and skill workshops to consistently keep abreast of any new developments in the treatment of obesity.

Dr. Atalla dedicates himself to listening and understanding his patients which establishes a necessary sense of trust, a connection that is imperative when a patient is required to place their faith in a surgeon who is about to perform a complex procedure on them. Assoc Professor Peter Nottle is considered a leader in the field of laparoscopic surgery, having pioneered the introduction of laparoscopic cholecystectomy and other laparoscopic techniques in Melbourne. He brings extensive clinical laparoscopic surgical experience and knowledge to the clinic, particularly upper GI cancer, anti-reflux, and bariatric procedures.
