About me
I became a consultant in 2001 after training in London, Oxford and Edinburgh. My main area of interest is the management of prolapse and female urinary incontinence. I also have interest and expertise in the management of benign gynaecological conditions including period problems, pelvic pain and ovarian cysts.
Areas of interest
Prolapse surgery; Urogynaecology; Urodynamics; Stress incontinence surgery; Botox for overactive bladder; Colposcopy; Menstrual dysfunction; Pelvic pain and Endometriosis. I am able to offer all types of hysterectomy including laparoscopic, vaginal and open abdominal.
