I qualified from Charing Cross and Westminster Medical School in 1993 and subsequently trained as a General Physician and Geriatrician in the North West Thames region including at St Mary’s Hospital and Chelsea & Westminster Hospital. I was appointed to the consultant staff at Chelsea & Westminster Hospital in 2004 where I have developed an interest in peri-operative medicine providing support to the General Surgeons and Orthopaedic teams (including pre-operative optimization), Rehabilitation Medicine supporting the Rehabilitation Unit at Ellesmere House and continence. My clinical interests also include all aspects of Elderly and General Medicine but particularly the complex elderly patient and polypharmacy.
