I completed an ECVS approved surgical residency at University College Dublin and achieved specialist status in 2008. I have gained extensive experience managing complex orthopaedic cases and I have a particular interest in the use of customised 3D printed surgical guides for the management of patellar luxation and limb deformity. Other areas of focus include the use of platelet rich plasma (PRP), techniques for joint reconstruction and total hip arthroplasty surgery. I have been published widely in peer-reviewed literature and am committed to providing patients and their owners with the best possible levels of care.
