About me
I run a specialised practice for hand, wrist and elbow problems. I am also trained to assess Shoulders, Neck, Feet and children's orthopaedic complaints
My clinic has facilities for a wide variety of outpatient operations including minimally invasive carpal tunnel, trigger finger, De-Quervain's, tumours, ganglions and Dupuytren's (mild cases). Since the Pandemic, I have done over 300 successful outpatient operations.
The most commonly done day case procedures include surgery for Dupuytren's contracture, arthritis of the hand/ wrist, cubital tunnel, tennis elbow and golfer's elbow. I am trained to carry out arthroscopy, small and large joint replacement, tendon and ligament surgery and fracture fixation.
I am also trained to assess the neck, the shoulder, the feet and children's orthopaedic problems.
A qualified Hand Therapist is also available to help with conditions that do not require surgery, or to assist recovery after surgery.
I work closely with Neurophysiologists, Neurologists, Radiologists, Rheumatologists, Plastic Surgeons, Anesthetists, dedicated Shoulder, foot/Ankle and Paediatric Orthopaedic Surgeons..
I am based in Surrey. Private Clinics and Operating Lists are held in Spire Gatwick Park Hospital (Horley) and Spire St Anthony's hospital (Cheam).
