I qualified in Sheffield 1988, then completed my training in Obstetrics and Gynaecology in East Anglia 1989. In 2003, whilst working as a locum consultant in Obstetrics and Gynaecology I took a career break for family reasons. I returned to clinical practice in 2014. I have now developed a special interest in post-reproductive care, vulval disorders, female sexual health and office gynaecology. I am a member of the RCOG and the BMS and hope to take up an additional post teaching soon.
