    Background Information 
    Professional profile:
    I undertook my research for an MD thesis at the National Heart and Lung Institute prior to completing my clinical training as a senior registrar at the Royal Brompton Hospital and St George's Hospital. I have been a Consultant Physician since 1999.

    I treat all aspects of respiratory medicine although my specialist interests include asthma, smoking related lung problems and chest infection. With the imaging department, laboratory and lung function facilities at Spire it is possible to investigate the cause of all chest complaints - in particular cough and breathlessness. In addition I manage patients suffering from obstructive sleep apnoea.

    Patients often present with symptoms of respiratory disorders over many weeks, often months, and I am committed to the rapid diagnosis and treatment of these conditions. Patients referred to my clinic can be seen within one week.
    Personal profile:
    Away from medicine I enjoy sporting and outdoor pursuits. Weather and time permitting golf and fly fishing are my main interests although currently spare time is shared with afternoons on the touchline supporting my children's endeavours!
