Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon
I am a Consultant in Orthopaedics specialising in musculoskeletal oncology, hip and knee replacement surgery, osseointegration and trauma. I am keen to see and assess a wide range of clients including those with bone and soft tissue lumps (both benign and malignant), hip or knee replacements, arthritis, fractures, soft tissue injuries and amputations.
I studied Medicine at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne. After graduation I worked in Newcastle upon Tyne, the Central Coast in Australia, Middlesbrough, and Northumberland before returning home to complete my specialist orthopaedic training in the West of Scotland. I also undertook fellowships at Edinburgh Royal Infirmary and the Mount Sinai Hospital, Toronto. I am currently based at Glasgow Royal Infirmary and the Nuffield Health Glasgow Hospital.
I have been awarded several prestigious travelling fellowships to units across North America (Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard and Parkland Memorial Hospital, Dallas), Australia (Macquarie University Hospital, Sydney), Europe and Asia (Seoul National University Hospital, Seoul, Tata Memorial Hospital, Mumbai and Ganga Hospital, Coimbatore).
Below is a selection of some the podium and poster prizes I have won throughout my 20 year career.
I have over 60 publications in peer-reviewed journals and am a manuscript reviewer for some leading orthopaedic journals. My publications are on wide ranging subjects from enhanced recovery and ideal implant positioning for hip replacement components through to tumour biology.
I am fortunate to have had the opportunity to combine my love of orthopaedics and travelling to care for patients, train local surgeons and visit many parts of the world.
