I am a Consultant Neurologist providing specialist neurological care in Worcester, across Worcestershire and Cambridge, with extensive experience in the assessment and management of common neurological conditions including headache, migraine, sensory symptoms, weakness, blackouts, fits and epilepsy.
My clinical interests include the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, movement disorders such as ataxia, dystonia, progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), and multiple systems atrophy (MSA), the management of fits and epilepsy, migraine, and the use of botulinum toxin injections for the treatment of dystonia, in which I have over 20 years’ experience.
I trained in medicine at the Universities of Cambridge and Oxford, qualifying in 1992, and completed my specialist neurology training in London, including at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery. I was awarded a PhD following three years as an MRC Clinical Training Fellow at the Institute of Neurology, London, where my research focused on the genetics of Parkinson’s disease and cerebellar ataxias.
I was appointed Consultant Neurologist in Norwich in 2004, where I led and developed Parkinson’s services recognised by Parkinson’s UK as an example of best practice. Since 2013, I have been a Consultant Neurologist at Addenbrooke’s Hospital, Cambridge, alongside providing specialist consultations for patients in Worcester and Worcestershire.
My previous leadership roles include involvement in the Parkinson’s Excellence Network (Eastern Region), serving as Specialty Lead for neurological research within the Clinical Research Network, and membership of the Council of the Association of British Neurologists, contributing to the development of UK neurology guidelines. I am also a member of the UK Parkinson’s Clinical Studies Group.
I am a recognised expert and key opinion leader in advanced Parkinson’s therapies, was among the first neurologists in the UK to use Duodopa®, and have published extensively in this field. I teach and lecture regularly at national and international meetings, including the Royal Institution of Great Britain, and am a faculty member of the Parkinson’s Academy.
As a Consultant Neurologist in Worcester and Cambridge, my approach is centred on clear communication, careful listening, and evidence‑based treatment, ensuring patients feel fully informed, supported, and involved in decisions about their care.
