Professor of Epilepsy & Medical Education, Consultant Neurologist

About me

I am a Consultant Neurologist at Atkinson Morley Regional Neuroscience Centre, St Georges University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust in London and Professor of Epilepsy and Medical Education At City St George’s, University of London. I have extensive experience in the delivery of NHS clinical services, medical research and education. I also have a medicolegal practice for cases where epilepsy/seizures are a main issue, and have experience in civil, family and criminal cases, including as a single joint expert.

I was appointed to St Georges in 2003 as part of a program to drive forward epilepsy care and service provision locally and for the South West London Region, and expand the academic neurology provision in the university. The clinical team has since expanded substantially, and now provides a comprehensive local and regional service. This includes full diagnostic facilities (MRI, functional imaging, Electroencephalography(EEG) and Video-EEG-telemetry), an active Neurosurgical Program, Neuropsychology and Neurospychiatry.

We run dedicated adolescent transfer clinics with colleagues from paediatric and intellectual disability services, and epilepsy and pregnancy clinics with colleagues from maternal medicine, and have established fast track pathways for patients presenting to emergency and other services. I also provide epilepsy expertise to the supraregional tuberous sclerosis service based at St Georges.
