About me

Having qualified from Bristol University Medical School in 1991 I progressed through Anaesthetic, Medical and Radiology training in the Midlands to gain my Consultant Certificate in 2001. I am a fellow of the Royal College of Radiologists and a member of the British Society of Gastrointestinal and Abdominal Radiologists (BSGAR)

As well as maintaining skills in general radiology I have subspecialized in imaging and intervention of the gastrointestinal system.

I currently practice as a Consultant in the Imaging department at Queen Alexandra Hospital in Portsmouth and through Radiology Imaging Group have a thriving private practice at several sites throughout Hampshire.

I am registered with the General Medical Council and undergo regular audit and annual appraisal as part of the revalidation process. I keep up to date with all areas of radiology as well as my sub-specialty interest through continuing medical education. All these processes and safeguards enable me to provide the highest quality of service to my patients.

I have particular skills in Ultrasound of the abdomen and as a result we have run courses and training for many other doctors and ultrasound practitioners from all over the UK.

I have also acquired an extensive experience of bariatric radiology including the assessment and adjustment of laparoscopic bands.
