Media Background:

Numerous articles and appearances in relation to health care, headache/analgesic overuse and its under-provision.

Invited Lecturers:

I have given more than a hundred invited lectures over the years to local, national and international groups on a number of neurological topics.  I have been the organiser of numerous Neurology Study Conferences and acted as Chairman of those meetings as well as chaired numerous sessions within significant scientic meetings.

 

In recent years, I have been asked to lecture to the Harveian Society, the Medico-Legal Society and the Association of Personal Injury Barristers (APIB).  I have also lectured at the Royal Society of Medicine on several occasions.

Personal Statement:

During my eleven years as a Consultant Neurologist at The Royal Surrey County Hospital, I was elected Chairman of the Neuroscience Department and held that position for ten years.  I left the NHS in June 2001. I had stated publicly that it was unsafe to practice neurology within the NHS in Surrey and Sussex.

 

I continue to have a large clinical private practice (20 – 30 new patient referrals each week).  I have in-patient beds at the Clementine Churchill Hospital and Gatwick Park Hospital.

 

Approximately 20% of my clinical time is spent in the undertaking of medico-legal work.

 

I employ six people in my practice with a full time office in Harrow.  My team ensure a rapid response to any correspondence or telephone contact.

 

I am part of a forensic neurosciences research group who meet regularly and discuss mutual matters.  We have untertaken a number of projects and organised a whole day conference on brain injury.

 

For too many years, I have been attempting to finish a book on "Abuse and Abusive Behaviour". I have a particular interest in the philosophy living and the philosophy of healthcare.
