About me

I qualified in 2008 from the Guys’, Kings’ and St Thomas’ Medical School in London. I continued to further his surgical training in Oxford and in the Kent region and obtained a Masters in Orthopaedics from University of Sussex.

I've worked with many of the prominent shoulder surgeons in the region during my training and went on to do my fellowship in Perth, Western Australia where I learnt key skills in shoulder and sports orthopaedic surgery.

My interests revolve around using upcoming technology for surgeons to provide reproducible excellent results for patient outcomes. I provide navigated shoulder surgery for my patients requiring shoulder replacement operations.

In addition to KIMS Hospital, One Ashford Hopsital and Benenden Hospital, I am a NHS Consultant at the busy Darenth Valley Hospital. I'm also a Visiting Senior Lecturer at Canterbury Christ Church University.

Areas of interest

Shoulder replacement surgery; shoulder arthroscopy; rotator cuff surgery; impingement; acromioclavicular joint injuries; fractures of the upper limb; carpal tunnel surgery;
