About me

I specialise in hip replacement and complex hip revision surgery. I have specialist experience in the management of hip arthritis and complex hip pathologies such as avascular necrosis, metastatic cancer, post-traumatic and developmental disorders requiring hip replacements. I am a revision hip surgeon specialising in the management of infected hip replacements.

Having had hip surgery myself, I can empathise with patients suffering with hip pathology. I understand the difficulties it can cause and how surgery can improve your quality of life.

I gained a broad experience in Orthopaedic and Trauma surgery while completing my training in Bristol. I completed a year of advanced arthroplasty training in Auckland, NZ, refining my hip replacement skills while learning new computer navigation and MAKO robot techniques for knee replacement surgery. I returned to Bristol for a fellowship in advanced hip arthroplasty and pelvic surgery before completing a final fellowship in Major Trauma at Southmead.

I am the hip fracture lead at the Bristol Royal Infirmary and Orthopaedic lead for Silver Trauma. I am one of four surgeons running the regional centre for prosthetic hip joint infection at Southmead Hospital.

I am employed by Health Education England as the Surgical Lead for Skills and Courses for the Severn Deanery and I have responsibility for providing skills training for over 100 surgical trainees around the region.
