He has been awarded Fellowship of the Royal College of Surgeons in Edinburgh and Membership of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists in London. He trained in the Northwest Deanery and achieved advanced training in laparoscopic surgery, urogynaecology and colposcopy. He has been working as a Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist in Wrightington, Wigan and Leigh Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust since 2008. 

He has practicing privileges and rights to admit patients for major surgery to BMI Alexandra Hospital Cheadle, BMI Beaumont Hospital Bolton, Spire Manchester Hospital, Fairfield Independent Hospital in St Helens and The Wilmslow Hospital HCA in Wilmslow, Cheshire.

He provides a high standard of individualised care to his patients and strongly believes in shared decision making with his patients when choosing between different options for treatment.

He has extensive experience in laparoscopic (minimal access/keyhole) surgery including procedures for uterine and vaginal prolapse and performs 90% of hysterectomies laparoscopically (keyhole surgery) or vaginally avoiding an abdominal incision.

He offers all types of prolapse surgery including surgery without the need for a hysterectomy. He has also performed significant numbers of surgical procedures for female urinary incontinence and can offer all the recognised procedures including laparoscopic surgery when required.

He provides wide range office gynaecology procedures and is an accredited colposcopist.

He has wealth of experience in treating menopause and believes in providing individualised, confidential care and professional treatment to help my patients through this major life-stage. 

He is trained in performing the Mona Lisa Touch vaginal laser procedure for vaginal symptoms of the menopause both for postmenopausal women and women who have undergone cancer treatment and suffer from symptoms due to lack of estrogen.
