I am a Consultant Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgeon with a specialist interest in foot and ankle conditions, offering private treatment at Spire Yale Hospital and Spire Abergele Clinic. I welcome patients from Wrexham, Abergele, Chester, North Wales and surrounding areas, providing expert, personalised care to help you get back on your feet as quickly and comfortably as possible.
I graduated from King’s College London before undertaking my postgraduate orthopaedic training in Manchester, qualifying as a specialist orthopaedic surgeon in 2015. To further develop my expertise, I completed a nationally recognised Foot and Ankle Fellowship at Wrightington Hospital, a world‑renowned centre of excellence for orthopaedic surgery.
Alongside my clinical work, I hold an MSc in Orthopaedic Engineering from the University of Cardiff. I am actively involved in research and education, having published over 15 peer‑reviewed papers and presented my work at national and international orthopaedic meetings, including the British Orthopaedic Research Society.
I believe in taking the time to listen carefully to my patients, explaining diagnoses and treatment options clearly and working together to decide on the most appropriate plan for you. Whether managing pain conservatively or recommending surgery, my focus is always on achieving the best possible outcome with minimal disruption to your everyday life.
I offer both non-surgical and surgical treatments, including foot and ankle surgery, sports injuries, joint pain and stiffness, joint injections for pain and inflammation, joint manipulation treatment, bunions and toe deformities, ingrowing toenails, ganglion cysts, arthritis and degenerative conditions, soft tissue and ligament injuries and x-ray assessment and diagnosis.
Wherever possible, I aim to use evidence‑based, minimally invasive techniques to promote faster recovery and reduce discomfort.

After graduating from King’s College London, I completed my postgraduate orthopaedic training in Manchester and became a specialist orthopaedic surgeon in 2015. I went on to further refine my expertise through a nationally recognised Foot and Ankle Fellowship at Wrightington Hospital, an internationally respected centre for orthopaedic excellence. I also hold an MSc in Orthopaedic Engineering from the University of Cardiff, which supports my interest in evidence‑based, technically precise treatment.
Alongside clinical practice, I remain actively involved in research and education. I have published more than 15 peer‑reviewed papers and presented at national and international orthopaedic meetings, including the British Orthopaedic Research Society.
In my clinics, I take time to listen carefully and to explain diagnoses and treatment options clearly, so you feel informed and confident about your care. I treat a wide range of foot and ankle problems, including joint pain and stiffness, sports injuries, arthritis and degenerative conditions, bunions and toe deformities, soft tissue and ligament injuries, ingrowing toenails and ganglion cysts. Where appropriate, I offer non‑surgical treatments such as joint injections, manipulation and guided imaging, including X‑ray assessment, as well as surgical solutions when these are likely to provide the best outcome.
Whenever possible, I use evidence‑based and minimally invasive techniques to reduce discomfort, support faster recovery and minimise disruption to your daily life. Whether managing symptoms conservatively or recommending surgery, my priority is always to achieve the best possible long‑term result for you.
