Specialises in

I specialise in orthopaedic knee surgery, with a specific interest in sports injuries, arthroscopic surgery, ligament reconstruction, osteotomy and partial and total knee replacement.
I completed my orthopaedic registrar training in Yorkshire in 2015. I then undertook two specialist knee fellowships. The first was an international sports orthopaedic fellowship at the UniSports Medicine Centre, Auckland, New Zealand. The second was a prestigious UK knee fellowship with Tim Spalding and Pete Thompson at The University Hospital Coventry and Warwickshire.
I was appointed as a consultant orthopaedic surgeon in Rotherham, South Yorkshire in 2016 specialising in knee surgery.

Personal profile
I am happily married to Hannah, who is a palliative care consultant in Leeds, with two young children.
I am a keen sportsman and since starting at medical school in 1999 have been a member of Leeds Medics and Dentist Association Football Club. Sadly due to life becoming too busy I retired from playing in 2017. I still enjoy keeping fit by going to the gym, playing tennis, skiing and cycling with my family.
