Having worked for a number of years in Oxfordshire, I moved back to London in 2017 and started working at the practice in January 2018. I split my time working in London Bridge and the NHS 111 Out Of Hours service in Hertfordshire.

I am able to offer orthodontic treatments including Inman aligners, clear aligners and Invisalign Go. As well as this, I have a keen interest in Endodontics and have completed a postgraduate certificate in this field enabling him to diagnose and carry out root canal treatment more effectively.

Outside of the workplace, I enjoy travelling and have carried out dental aid work and mentoring in Nepal, Zimbabwe and Panama. Most recently I was working with a medical NGO called Floating Doctors, and was one of the Dental Leads in the Bocas del Toro Archipelago.

Aside from teeth, I love all things sport, and enjoy bouldering and running (when my knee behaves itself!)
