Specialises in

I completed my neurosurgical and spinal surgical training in abroad and in Birmingham, London and Leeds. I completed one complex spinal fellowship (in the department of neurosurgery and orthopaedics) in London. I completed another complex neuro-spinal fellowship in Leeds.
I have now been serving in the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh for more than four years with specialist interest in complex spine dealing with whole spectrum of spinal pathologies.
The outcome of my operation is very good overall and the rate of complication is low. I hope to keep up the good work in my private work at Spire Edinburgh Hospitals.
