I am the Deputy Chief of Medicine at Conquest Hospital.
Regional adviser for both Royal Colleges of Physicians (London and Edinburgh).
I am year 5 lead for Brighton and Sussex Medical School at Hastings

In these roles I have had the opportunity to lead on many national guidelines and workstreams to standardise care of people with diabetes and endocrine problems.

I have enjoyed an extensive and diverse experience of growing up, training and learning in India, Oman and in the various parts of UK including Newcastle, Sunderland, Southampton and now Hastings.

I regularly play badminton and swim to keep fit. I also enjoy public speaking.

I am very lucky to have an understanding wife and bright children who have quickly grown up.
