I am a consultant respiratory paediatrician, one of only a few in the UK who does nothing else. My NHS practice is at the Royal Brompton Hospital in London, the national referral centre for diseases of the lungs and heart for children (and indeed adults).

There, we have one of the largest adult and paediatric clinics for cystic fibrosis in the world, one of the largest primary ciliary dyskinesia clinics in Europe and the largest difficult asthma clinic in the UK. My other specialist areas are firstly sleep medicine for children and we have one of the largest groups of children dependent on non-invasive ventilation in the world and secondly food allergies, such a common problem nowadays.

Following on from my doctoral thesis, my research interests centre on respiratory physiology and cystic fibrosis. If you wish to look at my curriculum vitae (resume), please click on the CV link on the left.
