He is the former clinical lead for cataract surgery and surgical trainer for the North London Ophthalmology deanery.
He has extensive training in refractive cataract surgery aiming to significantly reduce the dependence of spectacles after surgery.

He qualified from University College London Medical School with Distinction in Medical Sciences in 2009 and won several academic prizes as well as a commendation for the prestigious Duke Elder Prize for Ophthalmology. He continues to be engaged in research and teaching and has numerous publications in peer-reviewed journals. He frequently lectures in the UK and has run several wetlab surgical training courses for trainee surgeons.
He is recognised as a specialist with the General Medical Council (GMC) and as a Fellow of the Royal College of Ophthalmologists (FRCOphth). During his residency, he sat on College Council and was Chair of the Ophthalmologists in Training Group.
