Practising in Australia since 2008
I was born and brought up in the United Kingdom and trained in the U.K. and, Australia,
After obtaining my Medical Degree and a 1st Class Degree in Pathological Sciences, I completed my general postgraduate medical and surgical training in the North of England. I then decided to pursue a specialist career in Ophthalmology.
I spent the next 8 years training and working in Ophthalmology departments in the South West, Yorkshire and North East of England.
I was awarded Membership of the Royal College of Ophthalmologists (London) and then, admitted as a Fellow of the Royal College of Ophthalmologists (London) in 2006. After this I decided to specialize further, in the field of Retinal Disease and, its medical and surgical management. I undertook further training in UK, Australia, and Germany.
I was encouraged to move to South Australia, in 2008, due to the lack of Vitreoretinal Surgeons in SA and was admitted as a Fellow of the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Ophthalmologists (RANZCO).
I am active in clinical research and teaching of junior ophthalmologists and, medical students at Flinders University and, Flinders Medical Centre. I have represented the State on the RANZCO Surgical Skills Taskforce and, Curriculum Committee with the aim of improving ophthalmic surgical training in, Australia. I am, also, clinical lead for the Surgical Skills Virtual Reality Simulator (EyeSi) which is a new and, useful tool in the training of junior eye .surgeons
I have also served as an external examiner for the MOphth program in Malaysia, am a Member of the American Academy of Ophthalmology and, a Member of the Australian and New Zealand Society of Retinal Specialists.
I currently hold the positions of Senior Consultant Ophthalmologist and Vitreo-Retinal Surgeon at Kingswood Eye Centre and, Flinders Medical Centre. Both based in South Australia.
In my spare time I am an enthusiastic cyclist, trail runner and, Ashtanga Yoga practitioner.
I am proud to say that I have never accepted any industry sponsorship.
I am liberal (in the true sense of the word) in my views but conservative with my surgery.
