I am a Consultant in Anaesthesia and Pain Medicine with extensive experience in the assessment and treatment of chronic pain. Since 2016, I have worked as a consultant and Clinical Lead for Acute Pain Services at St Helens and Knowsley Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, alongside my practice at Spire Murrayfield Hospital Wirral.
I support patients with a wide range of pain conditions, including chronic abdominal and pelvic pain, back and neck pain, headaches, whiplash, fibromyalgia, hip and knee pain, lumbar spine disorders, soft tissue injuries and sports‑related conditions. My approach focuses on reducing pain, restoring function and improving quality of life, particularly for patients with complex or long‑standing pain.
I specialise in image‑guided injections for chronic pain and joint pain, both before and after joint replacement surgery. Treatments I regularly provide include epidural injections (lumbar, caudal and transforaminal), nerve root and sacroiliac joint injections, facet joint and medial branch blocks, radiofrequency denervation, pulsed radiofrequency treatments, and peripheral nerve blocks. I also offer joint injections for the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee and ankle, as well as genicular nerve blocks for chronic knee pain, trochanteric bursa injections, coccyx injections and greater occipital nerve blocks. Where appropriate, I also provide stem cell and PRP injections.
I completed advanced pain training at The Walton Centre, followed by a Certificate of Completion of Training in Anaesthetics and a Fellowship of the Faculty of Pain Medicine. I am actively involved in service development, clinical governance, audit and medical education, and was honoured to be named Anaesthesia and Pain Medicine Consultant of the Year for North West England in 2019.
