Background Information 
Professional profile:
Originally from Bristol, I attended Colston¿s School and then entered Bristol University. I qualified in 1981. In 1985 I specialised in surgery, training in military hospitals in Yorkshire, Northern Ireland, London, Hong Kong and Nepal.

I started working in Plastic Surgery in 1986. I became a Fellow of the College of Surgeons of England (FRCS) in 1988. I served in the first Gulf war with the Army Burn Team in Saudi Arabia.

I was a Registrar in Plastic Surgery in Edinburgh (St John's Hospital, Livingston and the Royal Hospital for sick children) and a Senior Registrar in Plastic Surgery at Queen Mary's University Hospital, Roehampton, London. I passed the Intercollegiate Fellowship examination in Plastics Surgery in 1996.

I worked at the US Army's world famous Burns Unit at Brooke Army Medical Centre and with the US Air Force at Wilford Hall Hospital in Texas.

I returned to England in 1996 to take up a Consultant Plastic Surgeon post at the Royal Hospital Haslar, Portsmouth. I treated British servicemen and their families from around the world and was also the Armed Forces lead clinician in burn care.

I left the Army in 2001 to take up my present post as Consultant Burns and Plastic Surgeon at Frenchay Hospital, Bristol. I also work at the Bristol Children's Hospital and see patients at the Bristol Royal Infirmary and Southmead Hospital.

My special interests include the acute care and reconstruction of burns victims, both adult and children. Much of my other work relates to trauma and cancer. I have published and presented on a variety of topics in learned journals and to learned societies.

I live in Bristol, UK with my wife and three teenage children.
