"The Spire Parkway Hospital follows the most rigorous standards for patient safety and quality thus ensuring patients receive the best healthcare possible."
Specialises in
I am a consultant neurosurgeon with a special interest in spinal surgery. I am dual trained in complex spine surgery having completed two fellowships in national centres of excellence (Royal London Hospital and Guys and St. Thomas' NHS Trust). I was one of only two neurosurgeons in the UK to be awarded the British Association of Spine Surgeons travelling fellowship in 2020.
I perform the full range of spinal surgery from simple to more complex procedures including minimally invasive surgery where appropriate. I also perform brain surgery for brain tumours, hydrocephalus and other brain diseases.
To date I have performed over 2,000 neurosurgical procedures.
I work within the framework of a multidisciplinary team ensuring all patients are provided with non-operative and operative options discussing the benefits and risks of each in order to provide individuals with a personalised treatment plan.
In addition to my clinical work I teach and train neurosurgeons and medical students. I give lectures on spinal surgery at national and international courses and conferences. I am currently a clinical personal tutor at the University of Warwick Medical School and was previously the education lead for the British Association of Spine Surgeons trainee committee.
I have a keen academic interest and have published my work in numerous internationally acclaimed journals.
