I am an Interventional and Neuromodulation Pain Consultant working across both the NHS and the independent sector in the North West of England. With over 15 years’ experience in pain medicine, I specialise in the assessment and management of complex and persistent pain conditions using a personalised, evidence‑based approach.
My clinical practice covers a broad range of pain conditions, including low back and neck pain, facet and sacroiliac joint pain, sciatica and radicular pain. I also treat nerve‑related conditions such as cluneal nerve entrapment and piriformis syndrome, alongside large‑joint pain affecting the hips, knees and shoulders, often related to osteoarthritis. In addition, I manage neuropathic pain conditions including painful diabetic neuropathy and post‑herpetic neuralgia, as well as more generalised pain conditions such as fibromyalgia, chronic headaches, facial pain and cancer‑related pain.
I have a strong interest in neuromodulation and advanced interventional pain techniques for patients with treatment‑resistant pain. My practice includes a wide range of X‑ray and ultrasound‑guided procedures, allowing precise diagnosis and targeted treatment as part of a holistic pain management plan that recognises the physical, psychological and social impact of chronic pain.
I graduated from Ain Shams University in Cairo and completed my pain medicine training and fellowship at leading centres across the North West, followed by a specialist neuromodulation fellowship at Guy’s and St Thomas’ Hospital in London. Alongside my clinical work, I am actively involved in teaching and currently lead undergraduate anaesthesia education at Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen Hospitals.
