Professional profile

I am one of six consultants delivering level 2B care in a busy district general hospital. I am the clinical lead for plasma cell dyscrasias and participate in a fortnightly specialist clinic at King's College Hospital. At Maidstone and Pembury hospitals, I run three clinics per week, which have a heavy emphasis on haemotology/oncology and general haemotology.

I attend weekly multi-disciplinary meetings, which are held together with allied hospitals via video link, where I participate in evidence-based discussion for the best management of the patient. I am part of a one in six on-call rota, which involves giving advice to the hospital for general enquiries, as well as being responsible for the in-patients. Teaching junior and allied medical staff is paramount and I achieve this on my ward rounds and clinics by discussing patients and any controversies surrounding their management.
