Interested Subspecialty: Soft Tissue Knee

Bio

I am currently an ST7 and have developed a subspeciality interest in sports knee surgery. I undertook a dedicated biomechanical research fellowship at the University of Birmingham looking into novel ways to treatment meniscal root tears. During this time, I picked up essential skills to bridge the gap between biomechanical innovation and clinical translation, with the goal of improving joint preservation and patient outcomes. Looking ahead, I plan to undertake advanced fellowships in sports knee surgery, with the ambition of combining complex soft tissue work with ongoing academic research.
