I am the Clinical Lead for Acute Medicine and Acute Frailty. I also review complaints and author serious incident reports. Common themes are delays in the treatment of: • Sepsis • Acute kidney injuries • Chest pain • Pulmonary embolism/venous thromboembolism (VTE) • Delirium • Falls • Seizures • Complications of alcohol I manage diabetes and endocrine patients both acutely (like acute diabetic feet/DKA) and long term (conditions like diabetes, thyroid disorders, adrenal conditions, osteoporosis and hypercalcaemia).

My consultant role includes both acute and more long-stay traditional geriatric and general medicine, and I have an interest in perioperative care and syncope. I have extensive experience of writing legal reports on acute medical matters, as well as more specific geriatric problems such as falls and delirium.
