I studied medicine at Cambridge University and St George’s University of London, graduating in 2012 winning multiple undergraduate prizes including the British Pharmacological Society Prize. I completed my early resident doctor training in South Wales, where I grew up before moving to the North West to complete my surgical training, throughout the North West of England. I was admitted as a fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons England in 2021, achieving my Certificate of Completion of Training in 2022. I subsequently completed a subspecialty fellowship training in Otology with Professor Jaydip Ray in Sheffield. I have been a consultant ENT Surgeon at Wrightington, Wigan and Leigh Hospitals since June 2023.

I have also completed a Postgraduate Certificate in Medical Education, graduating with Distinction, helping me to take an active role in the development and training of tomorrow’s doctors and surgeons.

In addition to my clinical work, I also hold the following additional roles:

• Paediatric Lead in ENT, WWL NHS Foundation Trust

• Trust Specialty Training Lead in ENT, WWL NHS Foundation Trust

• Governance Lead in ENT Surgery, WWL NHS Foundation Trust

• Trust lead for ENT at the Greater Manchester ENT Clinical Reference Group

• Principal Investigator in TALGITS and STARFISH trials

• Honarary Senior Lecture, Edge Hill University

I am widely published; below are a few of my authored publications:

I am a proud father to two young boys and love to spend my time with my family, enjoying the green spaces we are fortunate to have in abundance around Lancashire and Cheshire.
