Background Information 
Professional profile:

I have been a Consultant in Norwich for 22 years. For 15 years my main interests were in trauma and limb reconstruction, but more recently I have developed the foot and ankle service in Norwich. I cover all aspects of this field including ankle replacement, hindfoot surgery, ligament and sports injuries, and forefoot operations.

 

I have been both Department Chairman and Clinical Director at Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital, Regional Advisor in Trauma and Orthopaedics for East Anglia, and have been a member of the Council of the British Orthopaedic Association. I was a member of the Specialist Advisory Committee in Orthopaedics for 5 years, and currently I am Chairman of the Intercollegiate Specialty Board in Trauma and Orthopaedics, which organises and regulates the Final Examinations in Orthopaedics, the FRCS (T&O)

 

In Europe I am President of the Orthopaedic Section of the Union of European Medical Specialists, which deals with Training and Practice across the European Union.

Personal profile:

I live in a beautiful village in the Norfolk Countryside, with my wife and 2 dogs. I have 3 grown up daughters. I enjoy gardening, theatre and music, although I have little time for hobbies.

 

I still ski and cycle, but my real sporting days have been over for many years.

As a student, I represented Great Britain in Canoeing for some years, and participated in the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich, in Canoe Slalom.
