Experience:

I gained my medical degree from St George's Hospital Medical School (University of London). After completing 3 years of Basic surgical training, I took a year out to study for a Master of Science degree in Surgical Sciences at the prestigious Imperial College, London. My research looked into ways of regenerating articular cartilage in the knee – an area which remains of special interest today. My Orthopaedic higher surgical training took place in London (South-east Thames rotation) after which I completed 2 years of Fellowship training, sub-specialising in surgery of the knee and hip. My first Fellowship was spent in Adelaide, where he worked closely with some of the best surgeons in Australia perfecting techniques in sports injury surgery. The second year was spent as a Fellow at Guy’s & St. Thomas’ Hospital in central London where I learned techniques in all aspects of hip and knee replacement including revision surgery.
