About
I'm a fellowship trained Consultant Soft Tissue Knee Surgeon (Wrightington, UK) who specialises in sports knee injuries and arthroscopic (keyhole) knee surgery. I have extensive experience treating fractures and I have worked as a consultant in two Major Trauma Centres in the UK (Oxford and Leeds).
My current practice involves all areas of soft tissue knee reconstructive surgery (meniscus preservation, knee ligament reconstruction, osteotomies, fractures around the knee), with a particular interest and expertise in patellofemoral disorders (patella instability and patellofemoral replacement).
My research is focused on patella instability and trochlea dysplasia.
I also have a Medicolegal Practice and has Expert Witness Certificate from Cardiff University -Bond Solon (CUBS).
I'm committed to providing excellent patient care and outcomes.
