I am a Consultant Pain Management Physician and Anaesthetist offering comprehensive multimodal pain management for acute and chronic pain as well as general and regional anaesthesia for a range of specialties.

As a pain medicine physician, I specialise in delivering personalised care based on thorough patient histories, comprehensive examinations, and relevant investigations. I am also actively involved in specialised cancer pain management, where I provide expert advice and innovative treatment options based on site, nature and impact of cancer pain.

As a general Anaesthetist, I provide general and regional anaesthesia for all surgical cases. I anaesthetise for urological, gynaecological, general surgical, ophthalmic, trauma, orthopaedics, ENT, maxillofacial and plastic surgery.

I trained at the Barts and the London School of Anaesthesia and completed my pain fellowship at the prestigious Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital, Stanmore and the University College London Hospital NHS Foundation Trust (UCLH).

I am the Social Media Editor for the British Journal of Anaesthesia Education Journal. Beyond my clinical and academic roles, I am deeply committed to community health. I serve as a trustee and safeguarding lead for Social Action for Health, a charity dedicated to reducing health inequalities.
