About me

I am a respiratory physician and my NHS practice is at St Mary's Hospital in Paddington this is Imperial College's busy acute hospital.

I spend most of my NHS practice looking after lung cancer patients. It's my aim is to make sure patients have rapid access to diagnostics and all the support they need through their pathway, including timely reassurance and the discharge of patients who don't have lung cancer. Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust has one of the best lung cancer survival rates in the country, I led this service for 7 years and I am proud to use my NHS expertise to similarly look after my private patients.

?

I trained at St Mary Hospital and completed my PhD at the Royal Brompton Hospital. I have many years' experience of looking after very unwell respiratory patients in high dependency care, and in my current role, I am responsible for lung cancer patients at Imperial, as well as general medical patients on the wards and am part of the general medical on call rota. I also happy to see and looks after all general respiratory issues.

I also do acute general medical on calls and look after general medical and respiratory inpatients. My experience includes management of obesity hypoventilation and obstructive sleep apnoea with NIV and CPAP.

Since qualifying I have also gained both an MSc in respiratory medicine and a research PhD in the field of post critical illness muscle wasting.
