About me

Dr Stimpson is a dynamic and highly motivated anaesthetist with an interest in regional anaesthesia - the practice of using local anaesthetic to numb parts of the body to allow operations to happen or provide pain relief. He has been a Consultant Anaesthetist for 12 years, having done focused training on regional anaesthesia. He has a special interest in spinal, lower limb and upper limb anaesthetics, and a focus on techniques which provide pain relief but do not numb the muscles.

Areas of interest

Regional anaesthesia; spinal anaesthesia; nerve blocks; awake surgery; ankle blocks; shoulder anaesthesia; interscalene block; suprascapular nerve block; brachial plexus block; axillary block
