Dr Seton is a Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons and has a special interest in complex colorectal and abdominal wall surgery.

Dr Seton graduated from the University of New South Wales. She undertook her General Surgical training in the Northern Sydney Network and then post-fellowship colorectal training at Royal North Shore Hospital.

one of the United Kingdom’s two accredited national reference centres for severe intestinal failure), and pelvic floor pathology (working with the United Kingdom’s largest specialist biofeedback team and with the Sir Alan Parks Physiology Unit); alongside complex inflammatory bowel disease surgery, intestinal polyposis, abdominal wall reconstruction as well as advanced proctology.
