I am a consultant in Upper Limb Orthopaedics with over 30 years of experience, dedicated to helping patients regain mobility and improve their quality of life. Since 2007, I have been providing care to patients across Kent and the South East of England, focusing exclusively on shoulder, elbow, wrist, and hand conditions. My practice combines extensive clinical expertise with the latest surgical techniques to deliver personalised, evidence-based care.

I see and treat patients in a number of locations in Kent, allowing you to arrange an appointment at a place and time convenient to you.

Currently working for the NHS and private sector, I specialise in the management of upper limb orthopaedic conditions and trauma surgery relating to the shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand joints. 

I am available for private consultations at the Kent Institute of Medicine & Surgery, Lyca Health, Orpington and Spire Alexandra Hospital.

I graduated from Maharaja Sayajirao University, India, where my early interest in upper limb orthopaedics developed through my thesis on Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

I completed advanced training in the UK, including fellowships at internationally recognised centres such as Perth Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine Centre (Australia), Kleinert & Kutz Hand Institute (USA) and Orthopaedic Associates at Baptist Hospital (USA), refining my expertise in modern surgical techniques.

Performing over 800 procedures annually, I specialise in both routine and complex cases. My expertise includes:Shoulder - Rotator cuff tears, impingement, arthritis, frozen shoulder, and dislocations; Elbow - Tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, elbow arthritis, and trapped nerve; Wrist & Hand - Carpal tunnel syndrome, finger and wrist arthritis, trigger finger, ganglion cysts, and Dupuytren’s contracture.; Trauma - Complex upper limb fractures requiring advanced surgical management.

My other treatments include: ACJ surgery for shoulder; elbow arthroscopy; elbow replacement surgery; hand surgery; inflammatory rheumatic disorders; osteoarthritis; sports injury shoulder; tennis and golfer's elbow surgery; wrist arthroscopy. 

My special clinical interests include: Painful wrist / hand, elbow and shoulder, pins and needles, fractures of upper limb, arthritis of hand/ wrist/ elbow and shoulder, shoulder dislocation.

With a commitment to shared decision-making, I ensure each patient receives a tailored treatment plan that aligns with their needs and goals.

Education and research are integral to my practice. As a Visiting Professor at Canterbury Christchurch University and the All India Institute of Medical Sciences, I am dedicated to mentoring the next generation of surgeons.

I have over 100 publications in national and international journals, 120+ presentations at leading medical conferences, and I am a faculty member of the F.R.C.S. (Orth) Course and examiner at GKT Medical School.

Whether through lectures, hands-on training, or mentorship, I am passionate about advancing the field of upper limb orthopaedics. I enjoy engaging with medical students, trainees, and even aspiring medics in secondary schools, offering insights into a career in medicine and guidance through mock interviews as well promoting work experience for sixth form students.
