About me

I am an experienced Consultant Gastroenterologist at Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust, with subspecialty expertise in both advanced clinical nutrition and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). As part of my clinical practice in general gastroenterology, I offer advanced diagnostics and treatments for a range of conditions, including: gastrointestinal cancers, acid reflux, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), coeliac disease, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), bile acid malabsorption (BAM), and constipation. As part of my subspecialty expertise, I receive tertiary centre referrals and manage patients from hospitals throughout the East Midlands region for complex IBD, complex feeding tube complications and intestinal failure.

I perform over 500 diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopies a year, including a regional service for advanced techniques relating to feeding tube complications. I prioritise quality, safety and comfort, using water-assisted insertion techniques for colonoscopy and the highly effective underwater technique for removing larger polyps.

My comprehensive training and clinical practice enable me to provide my patients with the highest quality care. I hold degrees in Biochemistry (University of Bristol) and Medicine (St George's, University of London), achieving a Distinction in Medical Sciences. I remain one of the only gastroenterologists to have completed their specialty exit examination in the first year of training, and to have achieved triple fellowship training in advanced clinical nutrition (St Mark's Hospital, London; and Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge), inflammatory bowel disease (St Mark's Hospital, London), and advanced endoscopy (Nottingham University Hospitals).

I continue to be actively involved in research, having delivered important evidence on the risks and safety of endoscopy in the COVID era. I have a number of first author publications in high impact journals and have presented my research findings internationally, earning recognition with a British Society of Gastroenterology Research Prize. I continue to be dedicated to medical training at all levels, and have organised and sponsored medical electives in Nottingham for medical students affected by war and conflict.
