With over 18 years of experience as an Orthopaedic Consultant, I am dedicated to helping patients regain movement, reduce pain, and return to the activities that matter most to them. I specialise in the diagnosis and treatment of conditions affecting the shoulder, elbow, wrist, and hand, offering both non-surgical and surgical treatment options tailored to each individual's needs.
I understand that musculoskeletal problems can have a significant impact on daily life, work, sport, and overall wellbeing. My approach is centred around listening carefully to my patients, providing clear explanations, and working together to develop a treatment plan that achieves the best possible outcome. Whether you are experiencing long-standing joint pain, a sports injury, arthritis, nerve compression, or a complex upper limb condition, I am committed to delivering high-quality, personalised care throughout your treatment journey.
My specialist expertise includes advanced arthroscopic (keyhole) procedures, reconstructive surgery, joint replacement surgery, and hand and wrist operations. Wherever possible, I utilise minimally invasive techniques to help reduce recovery times, minimise discomfort, and support a faster return to normal activities.
As part of my commitment to providing the highest standards of care, I regularly attend national and international orthopaedic conferences and training events to remain at the forefront of modern surgical developments. I also lecture and provide educational sessions for GPs, physiotherapists, and healthcare professionals on the latest advances in upper limb surgery and treatment pathways.
In addition, I hold a visiting fellowship with the internationally renowned Cape Shoulder Clinic in Cape Town, South Africa, allowing me to collaborate with leading experts and bring the latest techniques and innovations to my patients.
I treat a wide range of shoulder problems, including rotator cuff injuries, shoulder instability, frozen shoulder, tendon disorders, arthritis, and sports-related injuries. Surgical treatments include:
Arthroscopic (keyhole) rotator cuff repair
Shoulder stabilisation procedures for recurrent dislocations and instability
Biceps tendon surgery

A Patient-Centred Approach
My goal is to ensure every patient feels informed, supported, and confident in their treatment decisions. From the initial consultation through to recovery and rehabilitation, I work closely with patients to deliver the highest quality care, using evidence-based treatments and the latest surgical techniques to achieve the best possible outcomes.
Whether you are seeking advice for a recent injury, a longstanding condition, or require specialist surgical intervention, I am committed to helping you restore function, relieve pain, and return to living life with confidence.
