Frequently asked questions
Why did you decide to become a Consultant Orthopaedic, Trauma and Specialist Upper- Limb Surgeon ?
I was fascinated by the different pathologies that affect the shoulder at different stages of life. Younger patients often present with instability, middle-aged patients with rotator cuff problems, and older patients with arthritis. The fact that one joint can present with such varied conditions requiring different treatments is what drew me to shoulder surgery. Working in private practice allows me to focus more on elective care and to engage more directly with patients. It provides a setting where treatment plans are less likely to be disrupted by emergency pressures, allowing for greater continuity and patient-centred care.
What are the common symptoms that your patients tend to present with?
The most common symptom I see is shoulder pain. In younger patients this is often related to injury or instability. In middle age, frozen shoulder and rotator cuff problems are frequent. In older patients, shoulder arthritis is common. I also see a significant number of elbow problems, including tennis elbow, stiffness and sports-related injuries, as well as cycling-related shoulder injuries.
What are the treatments that you're able to offer your patients?
Depending on the condition, I can arrange MRI scans, X-rays and ultrasound scans, including dynamic assessment where needed. In more complex cases, I work closely with radiology colleagues to ensure accurate diagnosis. Treatment options include targeted injections for both diagnosis and symptom relief, arthroscopic procedures, rotator cuff repair, stabilisation surgery, shoulder replacement, and surgical management of fractures and tendon injuries.
What are your areas of sub-specialist interest?
My sub-specialist interests include shoulder replacement surgery for arthritis, rotator cuff and labral injuries, and sports-related shoulder conditions. I also have a particular interest in elbow fractures and dislocations, and distal biceps tendon tears, including more complex chronic cases that require reconstruction.
