I am a Consultant Haematologist and Haemato-Oncologist with a private practice at Spire Norwich Hospital. My clinical interest and expertise are in the management of Lymphoma, Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia (CLL) and assessment of abnormal blood results.
I graduated from University College Dublin, Ireland and completed general medical, academic and haematology training in Dublin, Essex and the South West of England. I was awarded a Master’s Degree (MD) in clinical trials and research on Mantle Cell Lymphoma and Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma from the Peninsula School of Medicine and Dentistry, University of Plymouth.
I moved to Norwich in 2015 and have a busy NHS post at Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital where I am responsible for leading the care of patients with Lymphoma, CLL and in patients requiring autologous stem cell transplant. I manage and oversee the largest CLL practice in Norfolk.
In addition to the clinical work, I am the lead for the East of England Haemato-oncology National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) clinical trials. I am also an active member of the UK National Cancer Research Institute (NCRI) subgroups for Hodgkin’s and high-grade Lymphoma. I am very active in clinical trial research and am a principal investigator for numerous clinical trials in Lymphoma and CLL. I have been an author in multiple clinical and scientific papers, including senior authorship in national guidelines.
I am an enthusiastic and committed haematologist, who ensures that my patients get high quality, and compassionate care.
