Full Professional Profile
Professional Experience & Philosophy
I have extensive experience working across primary care, managing a wide range of acute and chronic conditions through both face-to-face and remote consultations. My clinical philosophy is grounded in functional and preventative medicine — looking beyond symptoms to understand the underlying drivers of health concerns. I take a holistic approach that integrates medical science, lifestyle factors, and patient education to support long-term health and resilience.
Education & Qualifications
I hold a Postgraduate Diploma in Adult Nursing from the University of Sheffield and am credentialed at Advanced Level by the Royal College of Nursing. I am an Independent Non-Medical Prescriber and have completed postgraduate training in minor illness and injury, paediatric minor illness, and advanced clinical reasoning. I continue to undertake professional development in preventative medicine, longevity, and evidence-based approaches to optimising health outcomes.
Assessment & Treatment Approach
My assessments are comprehensive and structured, incorporating detailed medical history, lifestyle and psychosocial factors, physical examination, and clinical reasoning. Treatment plans focus first on lifestyle optimisation, preventative strategies, and evidence-based interventions, progressing to medical therapies only when clinically appropriate. My goal is to deliver safe, personalised care that addresses both immediate concerns and long-term health.
Patient-Centered Values
I believe that effective healthcare is built on trust, communication, and collaboration. I prioritise listening carefully to my patients, ensuring they feel heard and supported throughout their care. By involving patients in decision-making and providing clear education, I aim to empower them to take an active role in their health and wellbeing.
