About me
I am an experienced, dual-qualified Consultant Anaesthetist based in Derby. My practice is split between delivering dedicated care within the NHS and providing private medical treatment.
My primary clinical goal is always your safety, comfort, and peace of mind. I understand that undergoing surgery can be a stressful experience. Because of this, I focus heavily on thorough pre-operative communication. I am committed to answering your questions clearly, alleviating your anxieties, and designing a tailored anaesthetic plan that supports a smooth, pain-managed recovery. As a bilingual practitioner, I am pleased to offer full consultations in both English and Arabic.
I provide advanced anaesthesia and perioperative care across a wide range of surgical disciplines, with particular expertise in: Head & Neck Surgery: Specialised airway management for complex ear, nose, throat (ENT), and maxillofacial procedures.
Spine Surgery: Tailored general anaesthesia and targeted pain protocols for intricate orthopedic and neurosurgical spinal operations.
Ophthalmic Surgery: Delicate regional blocks and sedation techniques designed for maximum safety, immobility, and patient comfort during eye surgery.
You can find me treating private and NHS patients at the following locations in Derby: Private Practice: Nuffield Health Derby Hospital (Littleover)NHS Practice: Royal Derby Hospital (University Hospitals of Derby and Burton NHS Foundation Trust
