I qualified in India and moved to the UK in the early nineties. After working as a junior resident in Wales and Liverpool, I was selected for orthopaedic registrar training in the Liverpool and Sheffield higher surgical training programme after which I sub-specialised in hand surgery at Wrightington hospital in Lancashire. I subsequently undertook fellowships at Kings College hospital in London and the world famous May clinic in Rochester USA before achieving consultant status at Medway Maritime hospital.
I now have a 100 per cent upper limb sub-speciality practice at Medway. I have published extensively in peer reviewed journals (17 publications to date) and have contributed to a book chapter on surgery of the elbow (editors Kay and Stanley).
