About me

I have worked as a Consultant Community Paediatrician 2003 and I practised in the NHS up until 2019.

I am qualified to perform the updated Griffiths Developmental assessment III and Diagnostic Interviews for Social Communication Disorders (DISCO), and ADOS assessments (Autistic Diagnostic Observation Schedule).

I see private patients at Kingston Private Health Kingston Hospital, Kingston Upon Thames KT2 7QB and BMI Runnymede in Chertsey.

I am registered with all the major insurance companies.

My private practise is dedicated to providing advice, assessment and diagnosis for children with developmental and behavioural difficulties, including speech and language delay, learning difficulties, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and social communication disorders (including the diagnosis of Asperger’s Syndrome and Autism).

I also help diagnose Developmental Co-ordination Disorder in conjunction with an occupational therapy assessment and other difficulties such as Sensory Processing Disorders. Many of my assessments are undertaken in conjunction with other professionals including speech therapists, occupational therapists, clinical psychologists, and Educational Psychologists and I greatly value reports from other professionals such as schools.

I endeavour to provide guidance to ensure a child receives appropriate support to achieve their potential as well as maintaining their emotional well being, including advice on how to request effective educational provision and encourage effective multi – agency collaboration.

I am happy to facilitate referrals into the NHS via GPs.
