About Seni - Breast Surgeon

Mr Senthurun (Seni) Mylvaganam
- Consultant Breast Surgeon
– Birmingham

NHS Consultant & Private Breast Surgeon - West Midlands

I am Mr Senthurun Mylvaganam – known to my patients as Dr Seni – a consultant oncoplastic breast surgeon working across the West Midlands, with a clinical focus spanning breast cancer care, oncoplastic reconstruction, and cosmetic breast surgery. Whether you’ve received a cancer diagnosis, are exploring reconstructive or cosmetic options, or simply want expert reassurance, my practice is built around giving you the highest standard of care at every stage. With over 20 years of experience and over 200 5 * reviews my practice speaks for itself.

I work at The Royal Wolverhampton Hospitals NHS Trust. Privately, I see patients at  Spire Parkway Hospital Solihull, MUMS Solihull, Kat and Co and Transpire Surgery Birmingham – four convenient locations designed to make specialist care accessible wherever you are in the region.

My foundation is in academic medicine – I qualified from Royal Free and University College London before training as a specialist surgeon across London and the West Midlands. That pathway led me to the National Oncoplastic Breast Fellowship, the UK’s most competitive postgraduate qualification in breast reconstructive surgery. Each year it is awarded to only a small number of breast and plastic surgeons through national selection, and it reflects a level of technical expertise that goes beyond standard surgical training.

I take research seriously; with over 70 peer-reviewed publications to my name helping direct best practice in the field and have a hand in shaping national clinical guidance, I stay at the forefront of advances in breast surgery – so that what I offer patients reflects the very best current evidence.

Training & Qualifications

The National Oncoplastic Breast Fellowship

The National Oncoplastic Breast Fellowship is widely regarded as the gold standard in breast reconstructive training in the UK. Awarded annually to a small number of breast and plastic surgeons by competitive selection, it represents the highest level of specialist training available in oncoplastic and reconstructive breast surgery. This fellowship underpins my ability to offer the full spectrum of techniques – from therapeutic mammoplasty and nipple-sparing mastectomy through to immediate implant-based and flap-based reconstruction.

Research and Publications

I am committed to advancing breast surgery through rigorous research and clinical audit. I have authored and co-authored over 70 peer-reviewed publications covering breast cancer surgery, oncoplastic techniques, reconstruction, and surgical education. I have contributed to national clinical guidance on breast surgery standards and am a steering member of several breast surgery research groups. I serve on the UK Association of Breast Surgery Clinical Practice and Standards Committee – the national body that sets best-practice guidelines for breast surgery across the United Kingdom.

My Approach to Patient Care

Exceptional breast surgery begins long before the operating theatre. It begins with listening. Whether you are coming to me with a breast health concern, a cancer diagnosis, or a desire to change the appearance of your breasts, my approach is the same: understand your situation fully, explain your options clearly, and support your decision every step of the way.

I am aware that choosing a breast surgeon is one of the most significant decisions many of my patients will make, and I do not take that trust lightly. I provide honest, straightforward guidance – including the realistic outcomes, the risks, and what recovery involves – so that every choice you make is fully informed. I will only ever recommend a procedure I genuinely believe is right for you.
