FRCS (Orth, UK) · FEBOT (Euro) · MRCS (UK) · MCh (Orth, UK) · MS (Orth) · MBBS
Twenty-one years in orthopaedics, including eleven years of clinical practice in the NHS, have given me experience across the full spectrum of the specialty — with a focused interest in arthroscopy, sports injuries and joint replacement, both robotic and conventional, alongside complex and revision joint surgery.
My approach is evidence-based and patient-centred: established surgical technique combined with careful clinical judgement, and a continuing contribution to clinical governance, teaching and research.
