About me

I am a Consultant Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) surgeon working in Kent and East Sussex. I have been providing specialist ENT treatment for adults as a Consultant for over 20 years. Whilst I treat all general ENT conditions, I have specialised in the treatment of the sinuses, nose and throat. My NHS practice was at East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust from 2005-2025.

I qualified at St Thomas' Hospital Medical School, London in 1989 and completed specialist ENT training in London and the South Thames region. I am on the General Medical Council Specialist Register (GMC number 3335534). I undertook specialist training in Head and Neck surgery at the Royal Marsden Hospital, London, and advanced training in thyroid and parathyroid surgery at the Hammersmith and Charing Cross Hospitals, London. I was awarded a Fellowship by the European Academy of Facial Plastic Surgery and trained at two centres of excellence in Amsterdam and Stuttgart.

I was awarded Clinical Excellence Awards in 2008, 2011 and 2015 and received a National award in 2018 from the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists for the introduction of the first One-Stop Swallow Disorder Clinic in the UK.

I am committed to providing the best possible care and outcomes for my patients. I achieve this by listening carefully to my patients concerns and involving them in the decision-making process regarding their treatment. I also work closely with Consultant colleagues at KIMS Hospital, Maidstone.

In my surgical practice, I offer minimally invasive and endoscopic surgical techniques, to speed up the post-operative recovery and reduce the time spent in hospital eg. Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) and Balloon Sinuplasty to treat sinusitis.

I have been involved with clinical research in the areas of ENT and endocrine surgery and have published extensively in the medical literature. Please go to my website (www.theentclinic.co.uk) to view a list of my publications.
