After qualifying from Sheffield Medical School in 1998 I undertook basic surgical training before moving to become a GP. I have subsequently had a portfolio career working in different areas of healthcare including Medical Director roles in both Commissioning and Provider organisations particularly Ambulance Trusts.
I have always had an educational interest supporting both medical student and allied health professional education in my practice and wider roles.
