I am a Consultant Dermatological & Mohs Micrographic Surgeon at Spire Leeds Hospital and Spire Harrogate Clinic. My main interests are in the diagnosis and treatment of skin cancer. I am Lead for skin cancer at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust and past President of the British Society for Dermatological Surgery. I am a Fellow of the American College of Mohs Surgery, having undertaken a two-year fellowship at the Skin Cancer Institute, New Zealand and a founding member of the international Consortium of Mohs Surgery. 

I graduated from the University of Leicester and undertook my postgraduate training at Queen's Medical Centre, Nottingham. I then specialised in dermatology in Manchester where I developed my interest in skin cancer and dermatological surgery.

My main research interests are Mohs surgery and in highlighting surgical techniques that provide patients with the best results. I am one of the most widely published dermatological surgeons in the UK.

Please note - I do not see any patients with any medical dermatology conditions ( e.g rashes, acne, hair loss, eczema, psoriasis or allergy).
