PROFESSIONAL INTERESTS

I am a Consultant Plastic and Hand Surgeon at the St Andrew’s Centre for Plastic Surgery where approximately 4500 patients with injuries including facial lacerations, leg injuries and hand trauma are treated every year.  In addition to over 800 patients per year with hand trauma of varying complexity (which includes tendon injuries, fractures and joint injuries, injuries to nerves and blood vessels and skin loss),  I also treat patients with elective hand problems such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, Dupuytren’s contracture and nerve compression syndromes. I have a special interest in microsurgical reconstruction of major injuries, nerve surgery, surgery for congenital anomalies of the hand and foot and surgical reconstruction of the upper extremity in patients with strokes and cerebral palsy.  I have an interest in clinical research and have published articles on hand surgery in peer reviewed journals.

I am actively involved in postgraduate teaching and I am currently responsible for the training of the Senior Registrar in Hand Surgery attached to the Regional Plastic Surgery Unit.

I maintain my accreditation for Continuing Medical Education by attending national and international conferences, visiting centres with an international reputation, remaining up to date with published literature in hand surgery and participating in postgraduate education and audit.

I am the Regional Advisor of East Anglia for the Hand Surgery Diploma which is administered by the British Society for Surgery of the Hand / University of Manchester.

I have been elected to Council for the British Society of Surgery of the Hand 2007 – 2010.

I have been the Plastic Surgery Representative on the Medical Advisory Committee at the BUPA Roding Hospital, Ilford for the last eighteen months.

After some research I contacted Mr Sood at the Roding Hospital about the possibility of surgery and the outcome I could expect, I found his approach optimistic and professional with a real understanding of the problem.
