EDUCATION AND TRAINING

Educated to A-level at the Haberdashers' Aske's School in Hertfordshire, I graduated in medicine from Jesus College, Cambridge in 2000.  After a year of adult medicine and two years training in paediatrics and neonatology in Cambridgeshire I proceeded to London, moving through cardiorespiratory paediatrics and transplantation (and becoming a member of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health - 2004) at Great Ormond Street Hospital, general and developmental paediatrics at Ealing Hospital (2005-2007), and paediatric (2004) and neonatal (2007) intensive care at St Mary's Hospital, Paddington.  I undertook my higher specialist training in respiratory paediatrics at the Royal London, Norfolk and Norwich and Addenbrooke's  Hospitals before taking up a part-time locum consultant post in general and respiratory paediatrics whilst I completed my doctoral research at Barts and the London School of Medicine and Dentistry (Doctor of Medicine degree and the Sir Walter Langdon-Brown Prize from the University of Cambridge).  I am dual-certified in general and specialist respiratory paediatric medicine and have been a consultant at the Royal London Children's Hospital since 2013.
