Make an enquiry

I am a Consultant Medical Oncologist specialising in acute oncology, melanoma, ovarian cancer and cancer of unknown primary.

I see patients who require specialist cancer care, with either two or more organs involved, which require urgent diagnostic investigation and treatment. I can potentially begin chemotherapy treatment within five days of referral.

I completed my specialist training at University College London and have practiced as a specialist consultant since September 2012. I continuously keep updated with news from different oncology subspecialties as well as interdepartmental subspecialties.

Awards: 2018 Awarded Prof Alexander Spiers Keynote Lecture Medal, Royal College Physicians Edinburgh; 2016 QiC Award and Clinical Excellence Award holder; 2014 Best Cancer Team Awarded by Quality in Care (QiC); 2013 Best Innovation Team, Westminster, Acute Oncology Walk-in Bay.

I am a part of Barts and the London Hospital/Queen Mary Alumni group.
