About me

I am Consultant in General and Respiratory medicine for over 20 years.My NHS appointments are at Darent Valley Hospital in Dartford and Queen Mary's Hospital in Sidcup. I have previously been a Clinical Director for Medicine. Currently I am Chairman of Lung cancer group in Kent (TSSG)

I have an interest in developing procedures and pathways for rapid and less invasive ways to diagnose respiratory conditions. I have developed the Endobronchial Ultrasound (EBUS) and the Medical Thoracoscopy service at Darent Valley Hospital which is available to private patients. You can see my other areas of interest on my personal website www.chestconsultant.com.

I frequently investigate and treat difficult-to-understand general symptoms like cough, shortage of breath and lack of energy etc.

I also have interest in education and training in Respiratory Medicine. I am member of speciality training committee for Respiratory medicine in the Kent, Surrey and Sussex deanery.
