I have been fascinated by neurology since medical school and graduated from Imperial College, London, with degrees in Medicine (five Merits) and in Neuroscience (First-class Honours). I embarked on Foundation and Core Medicine at renowned teaching hospitals including St Mary’s Hospital, Hammersmith Hospital and University College Hospital in London.
Afterwards, I continued specialist Neurology training at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, Queen Square, London, which is the leading centre for UK neurology. During these five years, I also performed research into genomic disease in epilepsy and was awarded a PhD. I undertook further neurology training at St George’s Hospital, London and the Royal Surrey County Hospital, Guildford, as well as being selected for a training fellowship in Royal North Shore Hospital, Sydney.
I took time out of training in the prestigious National Medical Director’s Clinical Fellow Scheme, during which I worked in medical policy and medical education. I have published over 80 articles and 2 medical books. I am an Honorary Clinical Senior Lecturer at Brunel University Medical School and in charge of the Neuroscience and Neurology curriculum.
I currently work as a Consultant Neurologist at King Edward VII Hospital in Windsor, Wexham Park Hospital in Slough, and the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery in London and Chalfont St Peter.
