Mr Marco Scarci

As well as running his clinical practices, both NHS and private, he has set up and is running a successful International Thoracic Oncology Symposium.

He also researches, has published (and continues to publish) and lecture in the field of single port surgery and chest wall conditions. He has published several chapters on these topics and have published 4 books.

He is involved in the leadership of the European Society of Thoracic Surgeons and am associate editors of journal of thoracic diseases and frontiers in surgery. He is a regular reviewer for some of the most prestigious journals in cardiothoracic surgery. He has published over 200 articles in peer-reviewed journals.

Whilst he continues to work as a Consultant Thoracic Surgeon on a full-time basis, there is a short turnaround time for producing reports. He is normally able to see clients within 24 hours if needed and prepare a report within a week (subject to other commitments/annual leave). The time taken for the report is approximately 4–6 hours work but, if required, he can supply an approximate fee once full instruction and medical records for review are received. He does approximately 4-5 reports a month. Once he has been given the initial information surrounding the events giving rise to the claim, he is usually able to advise the solicitor running the file of the merits of the case (pro bono 15 minute conversation).

He has experience with joint experts reports and coroners courts.
