Biography

I am a Consultant ENT Surgeon and Rhinologist at the Manchester Royal Infirmary.  I am also a member of the Manchester Anterior Skull base Program at Salford Royal Foundation Trust. I am an Honorary Senior Lecturer at the University of Manchester.

I graduated from the University of Leeds in 2001.  I stayed on in Yorkshire to complete my early surgical training, moving to Manchester for my higher surgical ENT training.  I became a fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons, England, in 2013 and completed my specialist surgical training in 2015.

I simultaneously completed a post-graduate research degree at the University of Manchester; looking at improving patients’ health related quality of life. I have published many papers and presented my research at national and international meetings.  Patient centred care and high quality surgical outcomes sit at the heart of my practice.

To advance my expertise and sub-specialist Rhinology practice, I spent a year on the prestigious Rhinology and Facial plastic surgery Fellowship at Guys and St Thomas’s Hospital in London. I then moved to Canada in 2017 to undertake the American Rhinology Society Fellowship at the University of Alberta, in Endoscopic sinus surgery and Anterior Skull base surgery.

I have a passion for both undergraduate and postgraduate teaching with educational roles at the University of Manchester and Health Education Northwest.  I also provide pastoral care for the ENT trainee doctors at the Manchester Royal Infirmary in my capacity as clinical lead for junior doctors.

Special Interests

My specialist practice includes endoscopic polyp and sinus surgery, advanced and revision sinus surgery, anterior skull base surgery, functional primary and revision septorhinoplasty.

I jointly run a regular Vasculitis multi-disciplinary clinic and am in the process of setting up a nasal allergy clinic.
