I have had extensive training in all aspects of rheumatology and general internal medicine and see patients aged 16 years and above. I am highly experienced in peripheral joint injections (excluding spinal), joint aspirations, and injections for tendons, bursa and carpal tunnel. I specialise in the management of rheumatological conditions including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid and psoriatic arthritis, axial spondyloarthritis, gout and pseudogout, lupus (SLE), Sjogren’s syndrome, scleroderma, myositis, vasculitis, Behcet’s, sarcoidosis, polymyalgia rheumatica, temporal arteritis, fibromyalgia, tendinitis, bursitis and soft tissue rheumatism.

I also treat a wide range of musculoskeletal and systemic conditions including back pain, sciatica, neck pain, spinal spondylosis, joint pain (wrist, ankle, shoulder), plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinitis, tennis and golfer’s elbow, trigger finger, rotator cuff problems, osteoporosis, carpal tunnel syndrome, Paget’s disease, hypermobility, chronic fatigue and connective tissue disorders.
My special clinical interests include inflammatory arthritis, spondyloarthropathy, connective tissue diseases, osteoporosis, polymyalgia rheumatica/giant cell arteritis, fibromyalgia, soft tissue and tendon disorders, and joint-related conditions affecting the wrist and shoulder.

After graduating with first class honours (MBBS), I undertook postgraduate training across North West England (2001–2005) and gained MRCP in 2005. I completed higher specialist training in rheumatology and general internal medicine in London and the South East, including three years at King’s College Hospital and Guy’s and St Thomas’. During this time, I was awarded an MSc in Rheumatology and completed the Specialty Certificate Examination (MRCP (UK) Rheum) in 2011. I was elected FRCP in 2014.

I have worked as an NHS consultant since 2011 with a strong interest in medical education, having served as Royal College Tutor and currently supervising undergraduate and postgraduate trainees. I am also an accredited appraiser for consultant physicians.

I have held regional leadership roles with the Royal College of Physicians and the British Society for Rheumatology, and have been Clinical Lead for Rheumatology at Medway since 2018. I am actively involved in research as Principal Investigator for clinical studies and was recognised with an NIHR Research Support Award in 2023. I have published widely and contributed to research including work on rheumatoid arthritis and real-world treatment outcomes.
