I have been a consultant at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Gateshead since 2012. I was appointed as an upper limb surgeon and also take part in the trauma management.

Most of my training was in the West Midlands and I particularly learned a lot at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Birmingham, managing war victims and poly trauma. I did my shoulder fellowship in Derby and still have strong links with the unit.
