Professional profile

Previous clinical posts include:
1. Registrar training at Royal National Ear, Nose and Throat Hospital, as well as the Royal Ear Hospital (part of University College London Hospitals).
2. Research fellowship at Tuft's University, Boston, Massachusetts.
3. Senior Registrar at the Royal Berkshire Hospital, Reading, and then specialist training in Head and Neck surgery at the Royal National Throat, Nose and Ear Hospital and the Royal Marsden Hospital.

I am a consultant ear, nose and throat surgeon, and as well as providing a full general service, I specialise in head and neck surgery. I work as part of a multi-disciplinary team for the treatment of malignancies in the head and neck, including salivary glands. I have a specialist interest in voice disorders, and have a small voice clinic. Some of my research work was in laser surgery, and snoring surgery, and this also continues to be an interest.
