About

I am a Consultant lower limb Orthopaedic Surgeon with a specialist interest in hip and knee replacement surgery and lower limb trauma, with a particular emphasis on people with osteoporosis. I have developed an expertise with many types of hip and knee replacement designs and am well placed to offer the most appropriate design to my patients. I am actively involved in use of advanced bearings including ceramics, and robotically assisted surgery which I hope will lead to better longterm outcomes when compared with more traditional designs and techniques.

I qualified from University College London Medical School in 1999. A year later, I moved to Wessex and began my specialist orthopaedic training. I was appointed as a Consultant at University Hospital Southampton NHS Trust in 2012. Before taking up this post, I undertook three fellowships. The first was as a senior hip and knee fellow in Sydney with the Specialist Orthopaedic Group, one of the most prestigious joint replacement fellowships offered to visiting surgeons. Two further fellowships followed in Southampton, concentrating on complex hip and knee replacement surgery. I have a doctorate of medicine in the use of stem cells in complex orthopaedic surgery and hold an Honorary Senior Lecturer post at Southampton General Hospital where I work as a full time NHS consultant.

I employ a multidisciplinary approach to hip and knee surgery and believe passionately that the combination of patients taking an active role in the decision making process, together with dedicated nurses, therapists and anaesthetists improve outcomes.

When I'm not at work I can often be found cycling around the beautiful Hampshire countryside or windsurfing from one of our superb South coast beaches.
