Professional Profile

Experience bespoke tailored treatment plans and aftercare

“I’m proud to offer a wealth of expertise and the very latest technology with excellent patient care and individually tailored treatments”

I specialise in Vascular Surgery, with specific interests in minimally-invasive procedures for varicose veins, including Endovenous Laser Ablation (EVLA) and ClariVein™. I treat medical and cosmetic conditions from unsightly thread veins, spider veins, red veins, facial veins through to infected venous ulcers and DVT.

In safe hands

With over 30 years’ medical experience, I am a highly qualified vascular surgeon and a leading expert in the field of vascular and arterial conditions. I treat in the region of 2,000 patients every year and as they will testify, I am committed to providing a service to patients of the highest quality.

I am a nationally and internationally recognised vascular surgeon, having gained a wealth of experience. I worked in the NHS for 25 years, with 12 of those years spent as a consultant surgeon at Addenbrooke’s Hospital, Cambridge, and I have been working in the private sector for a total of 23 years. My private clinics are based in London, Cambridge and Bury St Edmunds, treating patients from across the UK and Europe.

What do I cover?

I specialise in Vascular Surgery, with specific interests in minimally-invasive procedures for varicose veins, including Endovenous Laser Ablation (EVLA) and ClariVein™. I also treat thread veins, spider veins, red veins and facial veins. Patients also come to see me regarding venous ulceration; venous eczema; deep vein thrombosis (DVT); lymphoedema; leg swelling; phlebitis; venous and arterial disorders; peripheral vascular disease; hernias; subcutaneous lumps and bumps; axillary hyperhidrosis; sports conditions; Sportsman’s Groin; Fascial Compartment Syndrome.

Clinics

My private practice has been in existence for 23 years in Cambridge and Bury St Edmunds and 12 years in Harley Street, London. I also spent 9 years in Norwich. I see patients from all over the UK, along with many international patients. I am often asked to give second opinion consultations in complex cases.

Recognised expert

I am a recognised expert in Endovenous Laser Ablation varicose vein treatment and have to date completed over 6,000 of these procedures in the private sector. This makes me one of the most experienced surgeons in the Endovenous Laser technique in the UK.

I have also lectured on Endovenous Laser to other surgeons – and trained them in the technique – in such places as Brazil, Madrid and Paris. I was the first surgeon in the UK to perform the latest available laser technique which avoids the need for tumescent local anaesthetic, making the procedure even less invasive.

Five-star experience

I pride myself on providing a five-star service to patients from the point of consultation to discharge and I am always looking for ways to improve the patient experience.
