MB ChB, MD (Res), MSc, MRCPCH
I am a Consultant in Paediatric Respiratory Medicine (PRM) at the Leicester Children’s Hospital and an Associate Professor with the University of Leicester.
After completing my schooling in Norfolk, I was awarded my medical degree from the University of Leicester in 2006, before completing a GMC accredited higher specialist training programme in PRM throughout the East Midlands and being appointed as a Consultant in 2018.
I have expertise in the management of children with cough, breathlessness, recurrent chest infections, chronic lung diseases including bronchiectasis, hayfever, rhinitis, congenital lung malformations, and airway abnormalities amongst other complex lung diseases. I am committed to delivering high quality, holistic, patient-centred and evidence-based care for all my patients.
I am active in research and was awarded a prestigious National Institute of Health and Care Research (NIHR) Advanced fellowship in 2022, providing funding for a programme of research into wheeze and asthma in preschool children.
I am an executive member of the East Midlands Paediatric Respiratory society, the Midlands Asthma and Allergy research association, and I am the current Paediatric Epidemiology group secretary for the European Respiratory Society.
