I graduated from the University of London in 1991 and undertook my diabetes and endocrinology training in and around London. Alongside this I was also a part time General Practitioner and took some time out of training to spend a year doing intensive care medicine and anaesthetics.

I was appointed as a consultant in diabetes, endocrinology and general medicine at the Norfolk & Norwich University Hospital in 2004 and Honorary Professor of Medicine at the University of East Anglia in 2019.
I hold several national roles in the UK including Chair of the Association of British Clinical Diabetologists, Chair of the Joint British Diabetes Societies Inpatient Care Group and Chair of the Examining Board for the UK Specialist Clinical Exam in Diabetes and Endocrinology. I am also a former President of the Diabetes and Endocrine Section of the Royal Society of Medicine.

Personal profile
I am married with a son and daughter. I try to practice what I preach by running several miles a week, lifting weights and generally keeping fit. I enjoy all aspects of cinema and film, as well as reading. I try to keep up to date with medical literature by subscribing to several medical journals (although I try to read them only after my children's bedtime).
I am from North India and speak Hindi and Urdu fluently.
