I joined Uppingham Surgery in early 2020 but have lived locally in Kibworth Harcourt for 20 years.  I have a great deal of experience in Safeguarding Children and Adults, Medical Education and workforce planning for GP Primary Care. I enjoy having the opportunity to deliver continuity of care and joined the PCN in December 2021 to help improve services to the local population of Rutland.  

I have over 20 years’ experience in primary care and have gained a vast knowledge and experience of the NHS during this time. I am not afraid to challenge working practices, and I hold a strong belief in future proofing the NHS for generations to come.

I qualified as a GP in 1994 and have worked continually ever since as a GP. My areas of special interest include minor surgery, palliative care, I.T. and medicines management. My ethos has been to offer a friendly, accessible service and in simple terms provide a level of care that I would like if I was a patient at the practice. I thrive on reflection and enjoy looking at ways ‘to work smarter not harder’.

I have been working as a GP Partner at Uppingham Surgery since 2010. I feel it is a huge privilege to serve the patients we look after and want to offer the best clinical care we can.
