I am a Consultant adult and paediatric ENT surgeon seeing patients with the full spectrum of ENT disorders including hearing, balance, voice and swallowing problems. I specialise in nasal allergy, facial pain, endoscopic sinus surgery and functional septorhinoplasty (unblocking and reshaping the nose). I have been a Consultant in the NHS since 2012 and perform approximately 250 operations each year. My patient satisfaction scores are excellent.

I am a member of both the British and European rhinological societies. Additional advanced fellowship training. Fellowship in Rhinology Derriford University Hospital, Plymouth 2010 (12 months). Fellowship in Rhinology and Anterior Skull Base Surgery Monash Medical Centre, Melbourne, Australia 2011 (12 months).

My private work is based in Harpenden, Hertfordshire, with regular clinics at Spire Harpenden.

I qualified in medicine from the University of Sheffield in 2000 and was a trainee in ENT in the East Midlands for six years. I then completed two additional years of advanced fellowship training in Rhinology (disorders of the nose and sinuses).
