I have recently taken retirement after being Consultant in General and Respiratory Medicine for 25 years at Darent Valley Hospital, Dartford and Queen Mary’s Hospital in Sidcup. I have previously been Clinical Director for Medicine and Chairman of Lung cancer group in Kent (TSSG).

I frequently investigate and treat difficult-to-understand general symptoms like cough, shortage of breath and lack of energy etc.

I have an interest in developing procedures and pathways for rapid and less invasive ways to diagnose respiratory conditions. I  developed  Endobronchial Ultrasound (EBUS) and  Medical Thoracoscopy service at Darent Valley Hospital.

I also have interest in education and training in Respiratory Medicine. I have been member of speciality training committee for Respiratory medicine in the Kent, Surrey and Sussex deanery.
