I am a Consultant Orthopaedic Spinal Surgeon at Epsom and St Helier University Hospitals NHS Trust and the South West London Elective Orthopaedic Centre (SWLEOC).

I specialise in minimally invasive spinal surgery (MISS). I offer some of the latest and most advanced innovations in spinal surgery using percutaneous, microscopic and endoscopic techniques.

I graduated from The Royal Free and University College London (UCL) Medical School in 2005. My BSc in Orthopaedic Science at the Royal National Orthopaedic Centre (RNOH) focussed on cell-based regenerative techniques for the intervertebral disc. I trained in the Oxford and Cambridge rotation as a junior doctor. I completed my Trauma and Orthopaedic SpR training on the London NW Thames Rotation. During my training, I was an Anatomy Demonstrator/lecturer at Oxford University.

I was elected onto the British Orthopaedic Trainee Association (BOTA), Specialist Training Committee (STC) and British Association of Spinal Surgeons (BASS) Executive Committee. I was awarded the Royal Society of Medicine (RSM) Presidents Gold Medal Podium Prize in 2012.

I have received specialist training in spinal surgery at St Marys Hospital Major Trauma Centre, Charing Cross Hospital and at the RNOH in Stanmore during his SpR Training. I obtained my CCT in Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgery in 2015. I have completed two Post-CCT Spinal Fellowships at the Royal Berkshire Hospital in Reading and a 1-year Complex combined Neurosurgical and Orthopaedic Spinal Fellowship in the Queens Medical Centre (QMC), Nottingham. I have travelled to various Centres of Excellence in Spain, Italy, Germany, France and USA to learn advanced spinal surgical techniques and to offer these specialist skills to his patients.

I have a firm commitment to life-long education and continuous learning. I lecture and teach nationally and internationally in MIS spinal surgery. I am a supervisor for MSc students. I am well published with research papers, articles and have over 50 international conference presentations. I am a reviewer for various research journals and an examiner on FRCS(Tr&Orth) revision courses. I am a member of the British Association of Spine Surgeons (BASS), AO Spine, Eurospine and NASS.
