Mr Morritt has gained considerable experience in cutting edge cosmetic and reconstructive surgery techniques through training with many of the most highly regarded Plastic Surgeons in the UK, Australia and Canada. After graduating from Medical School in 2000, he undertook surgical training in Yorkshire, ultimately becoming a Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England (MRCS) in 2003.
He then completed 18 months of Plastic Surgery training in Leeds, following which he travelled to Australia to work for 2 years at the world renowned Plastic Surgery Unit at St Vincent's Hospital, Melbourne. During this time Mr Morritt also undertook research in Tissue Engineering at the prestigious O’Brien Institute that resulted in a Medical Doctorate (MD) from the University of Melbourne.

He was awarded Fellowship of the Royal College of Surgeons of England (FRCS(Plast)) in 2011. He then undertook additional specialist training in Cosmetic Surgery as the National Interface Fellow in Aesthetic Surgery (Leicester).
Mr Morritt subsequently spent one year at the Toronto General and Women’s College Hospitals, Toronto as the Fellow in Breast Reconstruction, during which he was trained by world leaders in the field of aesthetic and reconstructive breast surgery. This was followed by a further year of specialist training as the Microsurgery Fellow at Imperial College, London where the emphasis of his training was on the reconstruction of complex defects of the breast and head & neck.
