Speaker

Dr Alex Boué — Specialist General and Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary (HPB) Surgeon

 

Dr Alex Boue is a General Surgeon with advanced subspecialty training in Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary (HPB) surgery, bringing over two decades of international experience across Argentina, Spain, New Zealand, and Australia. Currently consulting at Manning Base Hospital in New South Wales, Dr Boue holds Fellowship with the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (FRACS) and combines a truly global surgical perspective with a commitment to excellence in patient care.

After completing his medical degree in Argentina, Dr Boue trained and worked as a General Surgeon Consultant in Spain before relocating to New Zealand, where he held roles at Auckland City Hospital as HPB Fellow and Acute Surgical Unit Fellow, and later as a General Surgeon Consultant at Dunedin Hospital. He subsequently moved to Australia to pursue further subspecialty training, completing Liver and Pancreas Fellowships at Royal North Shore Hospital in Sydney, followed by an Upper GI Fellowship at Townsville University Hospital.

Dr Boue’s practice encompasses complex HPB and upper GI surgery, minimally invasive and robotic techniques, and endoscopic procedures, with GESA certification and over 500 endoscopic procedures performed. He has also developed significant experience in robotic surgery, having contributed to more than 140 robotic cases and trained at the da Vinci Fellows Lab. He is a Senior Lecturer at James Cook University, an active researcher with multiple international publications, and a recognised presenter at major HPB conferences worldwide.

Outside of surgery, Dr Boue is a devoted family man with a lifelong love of sport and adventure. He has played rugby across three countries, surfs whenever the opportunity arises and is an enthusiastic photographer and traveller. He is also an avid reader and music lover, bringing the same passion and curiosity to life outside the operating theatre as he does within it.

Now accepting patients at Forster Private Dolphin Suites and Mayo Private Consulting Suites.
