Professional profile
I joined the Bristol Royal Infirmary and Avon Orthopaedic Centre as a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon in February 2002.
My education was at Cheltenham College and Bristol University Medical School where I studied for a second degree in addition to my medical degree.
During the course of my orthopaedic training as a University Lecturer and Specialist Registrar in Bristol, I gained extensive experience in general orthopaedic surgery, teaching, research and audit.
I was awarded the certificate of completion of specialist training and in 2001 was entered onto the Specialist Register of The General Medical Council.
I have developed an interest in lower limb surgery, following a clinical fellowship at the North Sydney Orthopaedic and Sports Medicine Centre in the Olympic year and to be a European Travelling Fellowship. I have continued to develop expertise in specialist surgery of the knee.
I continue to work part-time in the NHS to provide specialist knee surgery to patients from around the country.
