About

I am a Consultant Neurologist with over 20 years of experience. I assess and treat people with a wide range of neurological symptoms. These are conditions that affect the brain, nerves and muscles.

I run general neurology clinics in Nottingham and Derby. I have over 15 years of experience managing both short‑term (acute) and long‑term (chronic) conditions.

I am an Honorary Associate Professor in Clinical Neurology at Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust. I am also Clinical Director of the International Centre for Excellence in Parkinson’s Disease at the University of Nottingham.

I have also worked as a neurologist in a specialist service for memory and dementia. This has given me strong experience in assessing memory problems and managing dementia, including complex cases.

Areas of expertise

I diagnose and treat a wide range of neurological conditions, including:

  • General neurology conditions
  • Headaches and migraine
  • Parkinson’s disease and tremor
  • Memory problems and dementia
  • Nerve pain (neuralgia)

I am particularly well known for my work in Parkinson’s disease. I have a national and international reputation in this area.

Symptoms I assess and treat

I regularly see patients with:

  • Headaches
  • Dizziness
  • Tingling or numbness
  • Weakness
  • Visual problems
  • Memory difficulties
  • Tinnitus (ringing in the ears)
  • Fatigue
  • Sleep problems
  • Tremors and falls

I am a member of several professional organisations, including:

  • International Movement Disorder Society
  • Association of British Neurologists (ABN)
  • Movement Disorder and Dementia Special Interest Groups

My aim is to provide clear advice and expert care. I will work with you to understand your symptoms and help you feel informed and supported throughout your treatment.
