About me
I live in Leeds with my young family. Through my wife I have an active involvement in the arts. I am a Landrover owner, keen cyclist, climber and also a proficient sailor. A Francophile - I have travelled extensively and, having worked abroad, have experienced in life in the diverse culinary and cultural environments of Zimbabwe, Rwanda, India, Nepal and New Zealand.
I work as a consultant ENT surgeon at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust. I have a BSc in Physiology and completed my undergraduate medical training in London and postgraduate training in East Anglia (Cambridge). I have gained wide experience in ENT working in a number of major teaching hospitals including Leeds General Infirmary, St Georges Hospital (London), Cambridge University Teaching Hospital and the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital. I was awarded an implant Fellowship in Cambridge that provided specialist training in skull base surgery, otology, hearing implantation surgery and balance disorders. My interest in these fields continue through my role in setting up the advanced middle ear surgery course of which I am a convener and continues to run annually in Cambridge. I also teach on regional courses in Leeds and Sheffield and am involved in the undergraduate teaching programme at Leeds university medical school.
As a consultant at Leeds Teaching Hospitals I am a member of a team dedicated to delivering the highest quality care in ENT, otology and hearing implantation.
My areas of responsibility include being governance lead for the department, setting up the multidisciplinary hearing implant service and leading on the new consultants' network. With my NHS practice in both Wharfedale hospital and Leeds General Infirmary I provide a general adult and paediatric service including nasal and sinus disease with a special interest in adult and paediatric ear conditions including complex middle ear disease, balance disorders, tinnitus and hearing loss.
