About me

I am a full-time spine surgeon and 100% of my acute and elective practice is dealing with spinal pathologies. I have a comprehensive adult and paediatric spine surgical practice.
In the Spine TANGO database majority of my patients have reported that they are either 'much better' or 'better' after my interventions.

I continue to develop new techniques in complex deformity correction surgery in the adult and the paediatric patients
