Dr David Hunter

Dr Hunter's private practice mirrors his NHS practice. In addition to offering consultations and treatment for many general gynaecological conditions, his areas of special interest are in the investigation and management of patients with endometriosis, chronic pelvic pain, recurrent miscarriage, menstrual dysfunction and female sterilisation. 

Dr Hunter graduated MB BCH BAO from QUB in 1992. He achieved membership of the RCOG in 1998 and was awarded an MD by QUB in 1998. He have been employed as an NHS Consultant Gynaecologist in the Royal Victoria Hospital and subsequently the Belfast Trust since 2005.

Having graduated from Queen's University Belfast in 1992 he worked through the local O&G training program, taking a sabbatical in 2000-2001 to undertake a clinical fellowship with Professor Ray Garry in Middlesbrough. During this time Dr Hunter was actively involved in the unit's research and as a result of his own research into the pre-operative imaging and staging of endometriosis was awarded MD by QUB in 2004.

Dr Hunter completed his post graduate training in late 2004 and was appointed Consultant in Gynaecology in the Royal Victoria Hospital in 2005 and practiced there (and subsequently in the Belfast HSC Trust) until his resignation in 2020. During this time, as well as providing general gynaecological services, he developed a multidisciplinary (solo rectal surgeon, urology surgeon, imaging consultant, pain specialist, fertility specialist) team for the management of patients with advanced endometriosis and was central to the establishment of a dedicated clinic for women experiencing recurrent miscarriages. Contacts with the team members will be retained in private practice post resignation.
 
Dr Hunter maintains appraisal and revalidation in keeping with GMC (registration number 3585487) regulations and enjoys attending conferences and exchanging thoughts and ideas about patient management. His current indemnifiers are the MDDUS.
