About me
After completing my specialist training in Gastroenterology in 2007 I pursued a fellowship in Endoscopy in QMC, Nottingham followed by an advanced endsocpic fellowship in therapeutic endoscopy and GI oncology in St 'Micheals Hospital in Toronto. I have been working as full-time Gastroenterologist in Northampton General Hospital since 2009. I have started an Endoscopic Ultrasound service in Northampton since July 2013 which has significantly changed the patient journey for patients with oesophageal cancer. I am also one of the two providers of the colonic EMR service to endoscopically large flat polyps> 2cm in the large bowel. I am currently the clinical lead in Gastroenterology and Endoscopy at Northampton General Hospital. I also teach and train undergraduate and specialist registrars.
