I am a medical retina consultant with specialist expertise in retinal disorders like age-related macular degeneration and diabetes at Spire Leeds Hospital and Spire Harrogate Clinic. I am an expert in cataract surgery in patients with these conditions. I have specialist knowledge on non-scarring lasers for diabetes.

I specialise in micro-incision cataract surgery (phacoemulsification), Complex cataract surgery in age-related macular degeneration (AMD) patients, complex cataract surgery in diabetic patients, AMD and diabetic retinopathy management, LASER treatment for diabetic retinopathy and maculopathy, management of other retinal conditions like vein occlusion and vitreo-macular traction and complex inherited retinal conditions.

I have particular interests in non-scarring laser treatment for diabetic retinopathy and inherited retinal conditions.

I have trained as a fellow in medical retina and inherited eye disease at Moorfields Eye Hospital, London from where I obtained wide knowledge on all retinal disorders. The experience gained, and research conducted during my four years at Moorfields fuelled my clinical and research interests. I spent another four years, training at Oxford John Radcliffe Hospital as a registrar and a fellow. I also work as a medical retina consultant at St James’s University Hospital, since 2016.

I offer treatments and services for the following; Diabetic retinopathy, Maculopathy treatment, Medical retina and inherited eye disease and Retinal vein occlusion treatment.
