--

I am a Consultant Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgeon with a busy NHS practice at Wirral University Teaching Hospitals.

I principally manage foot and ankle conditions, including complex primary and revision surgery. I also provide a full acute general trauma service for fracture fixation.

My subspecialty interests encompass arthroplasty (joint replacement) and arthroscopic (key hole) surgery of the foot and ankle, deformity correction and arthrodesis of the forefoot, mid-foot, hind-foot & ankle and the management of sports injuries.

I offers a comprehensive service that includes non-operative or conservative management strategies. Particular attention is focused on good communication, high quality personalised care & advice and facilitating informed choice.'

I graduated MbChB from the University of Sheffield in 2007 having previously completed a Bachelor of medical science degree at the University of Birmingham in 2002. I completed my Basic Surgical Training in Leeds and Bradford, passing MRCS(Eng) in 2006, before entering Higher Surgical Training within the Yorkshire region and becoming Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons (Edingburgh) in 2017.

During six years of specialist training in orthopaedics I gained experience in the breadth of the speciality with 24 months in training experience in Foot and Ankle Surgery in Leeds, Bradford, Harrogate and York.

After completion of FRCS(Tr & Orth) a Twelve months fellowship was spent on the Wirral in the prestigious SAC approved Advanced Surgical Training Post in Foot & Ankle surgery. During this time, interests in both complex primary and revision surgery were developed.

I maintains an active interest in research and training. I regularly lecture on foot and ankle topics and have presented research findings locally, nationally and internationally, with publications in peer reviewed international journals.

I have particular interests in arthroscopy, arthroplasty, deformity correction, sports injuries and revision surgery.
