Education:

As a Consultant Urological Surgeon, I work privately as well as in the NHS at University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust (Birmingham Heartlands, Solihull and Good Hope Hospitals), since October 2013. I offer my patients a comprehensive service (including general, cancer, stones, and prostate / bladder problems). I was born and raised in the West Midlands. I qualified from the University of Manchester (MB ChB Hons). I trained in the North West, London and completed my higher urological training on the West Midlands Higher Urological Specialist Training Rotation. I have published widely and presented at numerous national and international meetings. I have been awarded the title of Honorary Senior Clinical Lecturer from the University of Birmingham. I always put my patients first, listen to my patients and give them sufficient information to make an informed decision, using the latest evidence available. I am the University Hospitals Birmingham lead for providing new services including minimally invasive UroLift and Rezum steam therapy for prostatic obstruction symptoms and developing a provision for template and MRI/USS fusion prostate biopsies. I regularly give talks to GPs and local support groups.
