Consultant in General Internal Medicine, Diabetes & Endocrinology
MBChB, FRCP & MD
Hertfordshire
I have been working as a Consultant Physician, Diabetologist and Endocrinologist since August 2006. I have had wide experience in general medicine with a particular interest and experience in complex diabetes and endocrine disorders including endocrine cancer.
I have been working in the NHS for 24 years. I have had extensive clinical research experience with numerous noval publications and reviews.
My wide clinical and research experience and deep familiarity with the NHS provide me with a clear insight into medico-legal issues that can arise from failure of complex care pathways and/or failure of individual health care providers. A lot of my medico-legal work relates to clinical negligence, but I also do a lot of work on personal injury resulting in endocrine disorders or complicating pre-exiting diabetes or endocrine diseases. I also produce more than 50 reports on life expectantly every year dealing with complex and multiple co-morbidities.
I endeavour to keep myself updated in this field. I have attended the Medico-Legal Expert Training Course in London in January 2011 and the Clinical Negligence Course in London in November 2011.
I have also completed the Advanced Medico-Legal training day in London in June 2015. I am registered in the medico-legal section at www.specialistinfo.com and I am a member of many Expert Panel Groups and Medical Reporting Agencies. I produce around 100 reports per year with Claimant/Defendant/Joint ratio of 45/45/10.
