About me

I am a Senior Consultant Paediatrician at Medway NHS Foundation Trust with more than 20 years' experience in paediatrics. I have been a substantive consultant since 2007 having completed my specialist training at Birmingham Children's Hospital (University of Birmingham) and Addenbrooke's Hospital (University of Cambridge).

I specialise in general paediatrics and endocrinology, with a specific interest in general infections, migraine, headaches and seizures, eczema and other skin conditions, heart murmurs, palpitations and chest pains.

I also provide a service for allergies, food intolerances, gastroesophageal reflux and cows milk allergies. In addition to asthma, I treat viral related wheeze, recurrent cough and wheeze and chest infections. I am also experienced in urinary tract infections, joint swelling and pain and arthritis.
