Overview

About me

As a consultant anaesthetist, my primary goal is to provide the most evidence based, safe and considered care to my patients by adopting a patient-centered approach. I strive to deliver high-quality healthcare that is tailored to meet an individual patients needs on their unique surgical pathway. Throughout my career, I have honed my skills and acquired extensive knowledge in the field of anaesthesia, general and intensive care medicine specialising in preoperative assessment, cardiopulmonary exercise testing and high-risk surgeries.

Ultimately, my purpose as a consultant anaesthetist is to get my patients fully prepared for surgery, promote their safety during anaesthesia and deliver optimal pain relief and post-operative recovery. It is a privilege to be entrusted with your anaesthetic care before, during and after surgery.
