About me
I am a Senior Consultant in Clinical Genetics at St Georges NHS Trust. I trained at St Bartholomew's Medical School University of London and qualified in 1982. I began my career at St Bartholomew's Hospital and then went on to work in several London Teaching Hospitals. I have a comprehensive record of experience in genetics, respiratory medicine, diabetes/endocrinology, cardiology, intensive care, nephrology (kidney disorders) and neurology. I am also a fellow of the Royal College of Physicians.
I am part of a multidisciplinary team, which I led for 3 years, providing services for a population of 2.7 million people in the South West Thames Region.
I am a founder director and medical adviser to the Polycystic Kidney Disease Charity (UK) and Ex-President of the Medical Genetics section at the Royal Society of Medicine. Previously I was Secretary of the Clinical Genetics Society, the UK professional society for Clinical Geneticists. I am also Chairman of Arts St Georges based at that hospital.
