About me
Expert Care in General and Respiratory Medicine
With over 25 years of experience as a Consultant in General and Respiratory Medicine, I am dedicated to providing comprehensive, patient-centered care. Following a distinguished career within the NHS at Darent Valley and Queen Mary's Hospitals, I now focus exclusively on my private practice, offering patients timely access to expert diagnostic and treatment pathways.
Comprehensive Respiratory Care
I provide expert assessment and management across the full spectrum of respiratory health, with particular specialization in:
Asthma & Allergy Management: Tailored strategies for difficult-to-control airway diseases.
COPD & Emphysema: Optimizing lung function and improving daily quality of life.
Lung Cancer & Nodules: Rapid investigation, having previously served as Chairman of the Lung Cancer Group in Kent (TSSG).
Sleep Apnoea & Sleep Disorders: Diagnostic pathways for snoring and daytime fatigue.
Bronchiectasis and frequent chest infections: Specialist care with high resulution chest imaging and immune studies.
I specialize in investigating complex, "difficult-to-understand" symptoms that impact your quality of life, including:
Persistent cough and chest discomfort.
Unexplained shortness of breath.
Chronic fatigue and lack of energy.
My clinical approach is rooted in innovation and precision. Having established the Endobronchial Ultrasound (EBUS) and Medical Thoracoscopy services at Darent Valley Hospital, I prioritize minimally invasive procedures that ensure a rapid and accurate diagnosis.
Beyond clinical practice, I have long been committed to the high standards of my profession. My previous roles as Clinical Director for Medicine, Chairman of the Kent Lung Cancer Group (TSSG), and a member of the Specialty Training Committee reflect a career-long dedication to clinical excellence and the education of the next generation of specialists.
Whether you are seeking a second opinion or a primary investigation into new symptoms, I provide a thorough, compassionate environment to help you regain your health and peace of mind.
