I have extensive experience in the treatment of foot and ankle disorders, trauma and sports injuries, including arthroscopic and minimally invasive surgery.

I run a comprehensive foot and ankle service at the Montefiore Hospital in Hove and Spire Gatwick Park Hospital in Horley, and work closely with local general practitioners, podiatrists and physiotherapists to create an expert multidisciplinary service for patients.

I am happy to advise patients on all types of foot and ankle problems from bunions to arthritis to sports injuries and trauma.

My clinical interests include: Hallux valgus (bunions), hallux rigidus, foot and ankle arthritis, sports injuries including ankle sprain and instability, all foot and ankle trauma.

I graduated from London in 1993 and continued my postgraduate training in London and Cambridge. I completed fellowships in the United States at Johns Hopkins University (Baltimore), and in Bristol at the Avon Orthopaedic Centre. In 2004, I was appointed Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon at Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals.

I lecture and train consultant surgeons both nationally and internationally in foot and ankle surgery with a particular interest in minimally invasive and arthroscopic surgery. I have trained more than 150 surgeons worldwide in these techniques.
