I am a consultant gastroenterologist at Spire Hartswood private hospital in Brentwood, Essex, offering private gastroenterology care in our clean and comfortable private hospital.

I see the full range of gastroenterological conditions and carry out all the appropriate endoscopic procedures at Spire Hartswood Hospital. I am particularly interested in inflammatory bowel disease and supervise the provision of nutrition support for patients in the hospital. I have had extensive experience and training (particularly at St. Marks Hospital, London) in the management of difficult irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, nutrition and endoscopy.
