About me
I am a Consultant Trauma & Orthopaedic Surgeon who specialises in orthopaedic issues in children and young adults from birth to the age of 25. In my private practice I also see adults with foot and ankle issues.
My NHS base is at Bedfordshire Hospital NHS Foundation Trust as a Consultant Paediatric Orthopaedic Surgeon and I am also Clinical Lead in Trauma & Orthopaedics for the Luton site.
My NHS and Private practice includes all routine and complex paediatric and young adult conditions affecting lower limbs including hip, knees, foot and ankle. I specialises in paediatric and young adult sports injuries, trauma, paediatric limb deformities and limb reconstruction.
I qualified as an Orthopaedic Surgeon in 1998 from India and pursued advanced training in paediatric and adult sports injuries and trauma, complex orthopaedic trauma with deformity correction in children/limb reconstruction at various tertiary referral centres across the UK, India and Australia.
I have trauma and limb reconstruction fellowships from centres of excellence including The Alfred in Melbourne and Flinders Medical Centre in Adelaide, Australia. I have speciality fellowships in Paediatric Orthopaedics and Trauma from Birmingham Children's Hospital and King's College, London
