Virtual consultations:

I am an Orthopaedic Consultant and ran an NHS practice at Frimley Park Hospital from 2017-2024, when I retired from both the army and the NHS to focus on my private practice. I specialise in knee problems and am fellowship trained in both trauma surgery and knee surgery.

My practice is exclusively knee surgery. This includes knee sports injuries and soft tissue problems. I have a special interest in ligament reconstruction including multiple knee ligament injuries and revision (redo) ligament surgery as well as meniscal and cartilage issues.

I look after patellofemoral (kneecap) problems and all stages of knee arthritis. This includes joint preservation options such as osteotomy and injections including corticosteroid, hyaluronic acid and Arthrosamid. I offer partial and total knee replacement surgery with the option of robotic assisted joint replacement.

Every patient is unique, both in the specific problems their knee may be causing them and the demands they are looking to place on that knee once recovered. I am absolutely focused on tailoring treatment for each individual patient and empowering them to make the right decisions for them and their situation. This ensures I provide the highest quality care from first assessment through to full rehabilitation.

When not at work, I love time at home with my wife and our two boys, coaching my eldest son’s rugby team and getting out on my road bike in the Surrey hills.
