I am a shoulder surgeon in the UK. My current practice is with The Arm Clinic  based at The Wilmslow Hospital.

I have been a specialist in shoulder surgery since 2002. My practice has evolved to specialise completely on sports and soft tissue injuries of the shoulder. Providing second opinions, treating complex cases and performing revision surgery makes up a large proportion of my work. I practice closely with similar colleagues who specialise in complex trauma and shoulder replacement surgeries, as well as therapists dedicated to complex shoulder management and elite sports injuries and rehabilitation.

My primary focus has always been to try my best for my patients, even when surgery is not the first option as most shoulder injuries can be treated with non-surgical means. As such, I also strive to educate and empower my patients, supported by my educational website – www.shoulderdoc.co.uk.

Academically, I have written numerous books and contributed to the work of others on shoulder surgery and rehabilitation and am actively involved in research, with over 100 research publications. I have taught both undergraduate and postgraduate medical, sports therapy and sports medicine students. I hold the post of Honorary Professor with the University of Salford.

NOTE: I am not currently on the BUPA Open Referral Network as I failed to fulfil one of the criteria – ordering more than one MRI scan per year on a certain number of patients. As per BUPA: “in the highest 10% of consultants in your sub-specialty (UPPER LIMB) for the proportion of BUPA patients without a cancer diagnosis who have one or more repeats of MRI procedures within a year.”
I have explained to BUPA that over 35% of the patients coming to me are second opinions and tertiary referrals that have had previous inadequate MRI scans or previous interventions and require repeat scans, however this has had no effect thus far. I am still in discussions with BUPA . Apologies to any patients affected by this.
