My work as a Consultant Neurologist covers all aspects of neurology. I run general clinics seeing patients with headache, neuropathy, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis and other neurological conditions. My movement disorder clinic attracts patients with Parkinson disease and other neurological conditions affecting mobility. I provide treatment with botulinum toxin for dystonia (a range of movement disorders that cause muscle spasms and contractions). My practice focuses on consultations and pharmacological treatment. I perform diagnostic lumbar punctures.
I am a member of the Parkinson Disease Steering committee at Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital (NNUH) which supervises the treatment and care of patients with Parkinson disease in our region. I am a member of the Drugs, Therapeutics and Medicines Management Committee at NNUH as well.
In addition to my clinical work, I am also proud to be an honorary lecturer at the University of East Anglia. I am a clinical supervisor to junior doctors and registrars at the Norfolk Norwich University Hospital.
I am an honorary consultant neurologist at James Paget Hospital in Great Yarmouth running a botulinum toxin clinic once a month there. I am active in the research activities of our neurology department participating in trials with Parkinson disease. I participate in clinical research performed at Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital (Parkinson disease).
My primary interest in neurology is movement disorders including Parkinson disease, Parkinson plus syndromes, tremor, dystonia, Huntington disease and similar conditions and cognitive neurology.
I undertook my undergraduate training at University Palacky at Olomouc, Czech Republic and qualified as a doctor in 1995. I continued my postgraduate training in liaison with Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic, and the Institute of Postgraduate Education. I passed my first Board Examination on Neurology in 1998 and the second Board Examination in 2009 and qualified as a Consultant Neurologist.
I worked as a Neurologist in the Czech Republic for almost 20 years. I was involved in teaching at The University of Pardubice, East Bohemia. I was involved in research and clinical trials exploring new treatment options mostly for patients with multiple sclerosis and Parkinson disease.
I came to the United Kingdom in January 2016 and since then I have been working as a Consultant Neurologist at Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital. Except for my clinical, teaching and research commitments, I work as a Service Director for Neurology at Norfolk and Norwich Hospital.
