    Frequently asked questions

  • What are the common symptoms that your patients tend to present with?

    With myself being in private practice, I see patients who want a quick response to diagnosis and treatment. That's why they often come privately to me. Some of the more common things that cause acute pain and symptoms are things like painful, infected, ingrown toenails which require minor surgery or someone who wants a pair of orthotics made very quickly because they are in pain with their foot. That pain could be something as simple as heel pain or plantar fasciitis or it could be something a bit more complex like a sporting injury that has occurred and is getting worse and now they want that problem solved.

    Probably the two most common things I do is nail surgery or orthotics for athletes. I've worked with football teams and rugby teams in the past and also Olympic athletes. That doesn’t mean that I can't provide that same level of service to the general public.

    I'm based in the heart of London within Kensington. I see a lot of people of all backgrounds in that area – businesspeople, athletes, school children and people of all ages. I like to apply that same ethos to all groups of people. You don’t have to be a world-class athlete to be treated like one, and that's what I firmly believe.

  • What are the treatments that you're able to offer your patients?

    We do a full workup of the patient, take a history, give them a diagnosis of what the problem is, we outline all the available treatment option and then we make a shared decision together on what the patient feels like is best for them.

    Some of the more common things I see are ingrown toenails, heel pain, forefoot pain, flat feet, bunions, arthritis in the foot and ankle. There is a various array of treatments available for these things, such as minor surgeries, corticosteroid injections, orthotics and insoles.

    Recently, we've been seeing a lot of verrucas because there's more and more of a focus on people getting fit and healthy, more people using gyms and the spread of this benign virus just seems to be exploding, especially in London. Hence, I see a lot of verrucas in patients wanting to get rid of the verrucas. We offer a new treatment for these called verruca needling, and that's a minor surgical procedure which is done within an hour and it's probably the most effective treatment for verrucas to date. It's 70% effective when you compare that to something like freezing or burning the verruca with liquid nitrogen which is probably around 40% effective. It's a much, much more effective, definitive way of treating it.

    These are the more common things I see.

  • What are your areas of sub-specialist interest?

    My specialist interest is in minor surgery in conditions such as ingrown toenails and verrucas; sports injuries, commonly referred to as musculoskeletal (MSK) injuries; heel pain; flat feet; gait analysis for athletes; and corticosteroid injections for the foot and ankle for a variety of problems.
