About me
I was a consultant at Guys’ and St Thomas’ NHS foundation Trust from 2012-2021 and am now full-time private.
My major areas of practice are colorectal cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, hidradenitis suppurativa and hernia surgery.
I grew up in Worcestershire and came to London to study Medicine at St Mary’s Hospital Medical School. During my surgical training I worked in five of London’s prestigious Teaching hospitals and undertook an MD into the pathogenesis of Crohn’s disease at St Mark’s Hospital
