I am a Consultant Urological Surgeon with a specialist interest in Urinary Incontinence. I was trained as a surgeon in the UK since 2001 and have worked at different District General and Teaching Hospitals including Oxford University, Imperial College and University College London Hospitals. I served as a SAS Tutor under the Oxford Deanery for a period of three years and received a teaching award from Oxford University.
I completed a fellowship from University College London Hospital in Female, Functional, Reconstructive & Neuro-Urology. Later, I had the opportunity to work as a consultant at Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust until I was appointed as a consultant urological surgeon at Barts Health NHS Trust, working at Whipps Cross & Newham University Hospitals.
I am the M&M Audit Lead for Urology at Barts Health NHS Trust.
I maintain a close liaison with University College London Hospital Female, Functional and Reconstructive Urology Team as an Honorary Consultant Urological Surgeon, joining them in performing complex urological reconstructive procedures.
