Training & Experience

I completed my extensive Ophthalmology Specialist training in the West Midlands and Oxford regions, working at both the Birmingham and Midland Eye Centre and Oxford Eye Hospitals.

I also gained further expertise by completing a Medical Retina fellowship at Moorfields Eye Hospital in London.

After completing my Ophthalmology training in 2014 I acquired entry to the General Medical Council Specialist Register and started practising as a Consultant Ophthalmic Surgeon.

Within Ophthalmology, my subspecialty is Complex Cataract Surgery and Medical Retina with specialist interests in Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), Diabetic eye disease and Retinal Vein Occlusions.

I have expertise in the management of retinal and macular disease with laser and intravitreal therapies. In addition to this I also provide services in Glaucoma, Uveitis and General Ophthalmology.

I have held a substantive position as a Consultant Ophthalmic Surgeon at Ashford and St Peter’s Hospitals NHS Trust.

I have also worked as a Consultant at West Hertfordshire Hospitals NHS Trust, where I was appointed Clinical Lead for the AMD service and successfully implemented changes to modernise the Medical Retina service.

Throughout my career I have been involved in teaching and training Ophthalmology trainees, medical students, allied health professionals and Optometrists.

I regularly perform high volume cataract surgery and lens replacement surgical lists with premium intraocular lenses.

Publications

I have published articles in peer-reviewed journals and have also co-authored the diabetic retinopathy chapter of an online Ophthalmology publication.

I have presented at conferences at a national and international level and has also been a sub-investigator for clinical trials investigating the use of intravitreal treatment, for AMD and Vitreomacular traction.
