Background Information

Professional profile:

My post-graduate training in Rheumatology was extensive and included experience at several tertiary care centres including Guys & St Thomas and Kings College hospital. I am accredited both in general medicine as well as Rheumatology. I worked at Kings college hospital as Consultant Rheumatologist before moving to Leicester recently. My particular clinical interests and expertise are in back pain, inflammatory arthritis, soft tissue rheumatism, connective tissue disease, bone conditions, muscle disorders and osteoarthritis. My clinical interests are facilitated by my expertise in ultrasound, which i use in diagnosis of arthritis as well as guided joint and spinal procedures like epidurals. I am clinical lead for muscle disease in Leicester university hospitals and have started a tertiary care Myositis clinic.

I have a simple principal that all my patients should be treated as I would like myself and my family members to be treated. I try to help my patients understand their condition in simple terms and talk about investigations and management option based on their individual circumstances.
