About me
I qualified with Honours from the University of Manchester after which I completed basic surgical training. I underwent clinical radiology training at the well-renowned Nottingham University Hospitals, achieving subspecialist recognition in Interventional Radiology.
Subsequently, I carried out sub-specialist fellowship training in uroradiology at St George’s Hospital and University College Hospital London, both specialist centres for urological oncology, andrology and stone disease. Here I gained invaluable experience in the entire spectrum of urological imaging and intervention, especially multiparametric prostate MRI, PCNL and renal tumour ablation.
I have delivered numerous national and international presentations in urological/GI imaging and I am currently the Education Lead for the British Society of Urogenital Radiology.
My main clinical interests include urological and GI imaging, prostate MRI, contrast enhanced ultrasound and interventional radiology.
Areas of interest
Interventional radiology including vascular access.
Urological imaging and intervention including multiparametric prostate MRI, transrectal biopsy, PCNL.
