I am a Consultant Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Surgeon and proud to be one of Europe’s most experienced surgeons in minimally-invasive (keyhole) bunion surgery, having corrected over 900 bunions since 2013, and published and presented my work internationally.

In 2021, I published a scientific paper of 292 bunion surgeries I performed, demonstrating excellent results. This is now cited as the landmark paper for the technique.

In addition to bunions, I see patients for the full range of foot and ankle conditions, many of which I treat using minimally-invasive techniques:

  • Achilles injuries
  • Foot and ankle arthritis
  • Morton’s neuroma
  • Plantar fasciitis
  • Sports injuries including sprains, fractures and breaks
  • Toe deformities

My practice is based in London and Hertfordshire, although patients come to see me from all over the UK and beyond. I can offer virtual consultations for some appointments where appropriate.

I strive for surgical excellence and believe in involving my patients in decision-making throughout their treatment.

I live in Hertfordshire with my wife and three children. I am an avid cyclist and escape to the countryside roads most Sunday mornings, come rain or shine. As an ex-university player, I enjoy watching rugby, and having hand built a Westfield sports car, I follow Formula 1 passionately. My perfect holiday is skiing with my family.
