About me
I am a Consultant Plastic & Reconstructive Surgeon working at Queen’s Medical Centre and Nottingham City Hospital. My practice specialises in skin cancer and facial reconstructive surgery, and through this I have developed an interest in facial cosmetic surgery.
I am a core member of both the skin cancer and head & neck cancer MDTs in Nottingham, and I am the Chair of the East Midlands Skin Cancer Network Expert Clinical Advisory Group. I have been asked to give lectures both nationally and internationally on skin cancer surgery and head & neck reconstruction, and have worked as a skin cancer specialist surgical advisor to Novartis and Sanofi-Genzyme.
During my training I completed a national fellowship in both skin cancer and head & neck reconstruction, and I was awarded the Gold Medal for my performance in the FRCS Plastic Surgery Fellowship Exam (Ian McGregor Medal).
As well as my clinical interests I am passionate about teaching the next generation of Plastic surgeons. I am a member of the Royal College of Surgeons Specialist Advisory Committee (SAC) that oversees Plastic surgery training in the UK & Ireland, and I am the deputy lead for National Selection to Plastic surgery training posts. I am also the SAC representative on the National Skin Cancer Training Interface Fellowships, and part of the interview panel for the National Head & Neck Oncology Training Interface Fellowships.
I place great value on building strong relationships with my patients, and working in partnership to get the best possible outcome.
