Specialises in
I am a consultant orthopaedic surgeon specialising in hip and knee surgery, helping patients regain mobility and improve their quality of life.
I treat a wide range of conditions, from arthritis to more complex joint problems, offering both primary and revision hip and knee replacements. I also carry out knee arthroscopy (keyhole surgery) and support patients with more challenging or longstanding joint issues, including those requiring complex reconstruction.
My approach is to understand how your symptoms are affecting your daily life and to work with you to find the most suitable treatment. Whether that’s surgery or a more conservative option, my aim is to reduce pain, improve movement and help you return to the activities you enjoy.
Alongside my planned surgical work, I am involved in trauma care at a Major Trauma Centre, treating patients with serious orthopaedic injuries. I also contribute to regional specialist meetings where more complex hip and knee cases are reviewed and treatment plans are developed collaboratively.
I am passionate about maintaining high standards of care and am actively involved in training and supporting future surgeons. This ensures I stay up to date with the latest techniques and developments in orthopaedics.
Outside of work, I live locally with my family and enjoy staying active by running regularly, including long-distance events.
