His further advanced medical training was at St Mark's Hospital. He began his practice at the Wellesley Hospital in Toronto where he served as the Divisional Head and Chief for 30 years. He developed and directed the first training program in therapeutic endoscopy in Canada. He developed one of the first courses in therapeutic endoscopy, with the top gastroenterologic faculty worldwide, to demonstrate, initially via satellite, live advanced cases in endoscopy for other gastroenterologists around the world. His research has included the application of optical coherence tomography to gastroenterology and therapies for dysplasia in Barrett's esophagus.
