FRCS (Tr & Orth)
Specialises in
I am a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon specialising in hip, knee, foot and ankle disorders. I have been working a consultant for more than 15 years and I am currently working as an NHS Orthopaedic Consultant at the Royal Berkshire Hospital, Reading as well as providing private consultation and treatment at Spire Dunedin Hospital.
I qualified in 1986 following initial orthopaedic training in India, before coming to the UK for further orthopaedic training in the Wessex region. My clinical interests are anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, foot deformity correction and patella realignment. I carry out the following treatments: Ankle replacement, CL reconstruction, foot deformity correction, hip replacement and knee replacement.
During my medical student days, I was awarded the gold medal for Paediatrics and Certificate of Merit for General Medicine. I was also awarded the gold medal for the best outgoing student during my master’s degree in Orthopaedics.
I developed a day surgery procedure at West Berkshire Community Hospital for bunion deformity correction. I introduced total ankle replacement to Reading and did my first total ankle replacement in 2005.
I presented my thesis on "differential distraction for club foot" at the Tamilnadu Orthopaedic Association Conference and won a gold medal. I won second prize for my presentation on club foot correction at the Wessex region Gauvain Society meeting.
I was a faculty member for knee arthroscopy surgery at Royal College of Surgeons, London.
