After general Orthopaedic and Trauma training in England I was an Orthopaedic Trauma Fellow at Harborview Medical Center, a level 1 facility in Seattle, USA. In 1994 I returned to England to Oxford as a Consultant. I practice in a Consultant delivered orthopaedic trauma service. My clinical work is predominantly related to the management musculoskeletal of injury. This involves dealing with both the acute and the chronic phases. I deal with general trauma but also have an interest in the management of complex foot injuries and articular fractures. I have experience in the use of external fixation including Ilizarov fixators in the acute setting. The elective component of my work is related to the consequences of trauma.
