About me

About Me

I am a senior consultant orthopaedic surgeon at the internationally recognised Foot and Ankle Unit at Guy’s and St Thomas’ Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust in central London. I was appointed as a consultant in 2012 and currently lead the department’s Foot and Ankle service.

Before this, I completed orthopaedic training on the Imperial rotation in London. I also spent a year in the USA, undertaking advanced sub-specialty training in foot and ankle surgery. This was through a comprehensive fellowship at Mercy Hospital in Portland, Maine, under the guidance of Dr Gregory Pomeroy. I’m proud to be one of only a few UK surgeons to complete this programme. As a result, my training is recognised by both the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) and the British Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (BOFAS).

Clinical Practice

My practice focuses entirely on foot and ankle conditions. These include bunions, forefoot deformities, heel pain, and tendon problems around the ankle.

I have developed particular expertise in:

• Complex hindfoot reconstructions for deformity or arthritis

• Bunions and keyhole bunion surgery

• Total ankle replacements

• Treatment of cartilage defects in the ankle

• Sports injuries and overuse conditions

• Brachymetatarsia or congenital short toes

Because of this, I regularly receive tertiary referrals from other orthopaedic surgeons and often treat professional athletes.

Teaching and Research

I am a member of the British Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society and have published numerous peer-reviewed articles in specialist journals.

I am also actively involved in teaching and training. At Guy’s Hospital, I run a foot and ankle fellowship programme for senior surgical trainees. Many of the surgeons I have trained have gone on to become consultants in the UK and abroad.
