Other treatments
Some of the principal treatments I carry out at Spire include:
- Dermatological surgery

- Cryotherapy for pre-cancerous skin lesions
- Local steroid injection for alopecia areata
I have extensive experience in skin surgery, including removal of skin cancers and benign skin lesions, and of both cryotherapy and photodynamic therapy for precancerous skin lesions and other disorders.
I have a longstanding interest in the use of ultraviolet light phototherapy for skin diseases such as psoriasis, eczema/dermatitis, skin lymphoma and vitiligo, and have led this service at Addenbrooke’s Hospital for many years.
Professional profile
I carried out my undergraduate training at Cambridge and St George’s Hospital Medical School, followed by general medical training at the Royal London Hospital and then dermatology training at St John’s Hospital for Diseases of the Skin and the Institute of Dermatology in London. I have published over 100 papers on skin disease in medical journals. I have been a Consultant Dermatologist at Addenbrooke’s Hospital since 1991 and have worked to develop a high class service for patients in both the public and private health sectors.
I have held a number of senior roles in the NHS, including Director of Specialist Medicine, Governance Lead, and Chair of Medical Equipment Committee (Addenbrooke’s Hospital) and hold a National Merit award.
I have wide experience of general dermatology, including conditions such as psoriasis, acne, eczema, dermatitis, and vitiligo. My main areas of interest are skin cancer diagnosis and screening (including mole checks), use of dermoscopy in skin cancer diagnosis, assessment of sun-damaged skin, treatment of skin cancer and pre-cancer including photodynamic therapy, psoriasis and photosensitive skin disorders. I lead the psoriasis service at Addenbrooke’s.
