About me
I am a Consultant in Pain Medicine working at a large teaching hospital, with my substantive post starting in 2015. I assess and treat patients with long-term pain conditions and acute exacerbations of pain conditions.
My main interests are in the management of fibromyalgia, arthritis, back pain, pain after surgery and nerve-type pain.
Every week I perform interventional pain medicine procedures that include trigger point injections, epidurals, nerve blocks, specialised injections for shoulder and knee arthritis and radio frequency ablation.
I work within a multi-disciplinary team and have good working relationships with physiotherapists and psychologists.
I have a specialist interest in the management of patients with complex chronic chest pain, including refractory angina.
Areas of interest
Fibromyalgia; Osteoarthritis; Back Pain; Refractory Angina; epidural injection; nerve blocks; shoulder pain; knee pain
