About

I am a Consultant Clinical Oncologist based in Derby. I specialise in treating cancer using radiotherapy and drug treatments such as chemotherapy and immunotherapy.

I provide private care at Nuffield Health Derby Hospital. I also work in the NHS across Royal Derby Hospital and Queen’s Hospital in Burton.

My aim is to provide high‑quality, personalised care using the latest treatments available.

I am dedicated to providing evidence‑based care. I combine modern treatments with a compassionate, patient‑centred approach. I will take time to explain your condition and support you throughout your treatment.

Areas of expertise

I treat a range of cancers, including:

  • Breast cancer
  • Gynaecological cancers (such as ovarian, uterine and cervical cancer)
  • Lymphomas (cancers of the lymphatic system)
  • Sarcomas (cancers of soft tissues or bone)

I also manage complex and rare cancer conditions.

Specialist treatments

I provide a range of modern cancer treatments, including:

  • Radiotherapy, including advanced techniques such as IMRT and image‑guided radiotherapy (precise treatments that target cancer while protecting healthy tissue)
  • Brachytherapy (internal radiotherapy delivered close to the tumour)
  • Chemotherapy (drug treatment to destroy cancer cells)
  • Targeted therapies (treatments that focus on specific cancer cells)
  • Immunotherapy (treatments that help your immune system fight cancer)

These treatments allow me to tailor care to your individual needs.

My approach

I believe in providing clear information and compassionate care. I will explain your treatment options in a way that is easy to understand.

My goal is to help you feel supported, informed and confident throughout your cancer journey.

Special interests

I manage complex and rare cancer conditions.
