Background

Professional profile

Initially qualified in 1992. Started my current career in Anaesthesia in 1993. I have also specialised in Cardiovasculothoracic and Neuro Anaesthesia (post doctoral PDCC).

During my specialist training, I have completed a fellowship in chronic pain within the London deanery at Bart’s and the London, Whipps Cross and Queens Hospitals, which is recognised by the Royal College of Anaesthesia for advanced training in Pain management.

I am a Fellow of the Faculty of Pain Medicine within the Royal College. My interests include Neuropathic pain, spinal pain and Radiofrequency procedures for Pain.

Teaching and research are other interests.
