Profile

I am an academic General Practitioner at the Wolfson Institute of Primary Care and a practising GP in Newham. I also work within the North East London ICB Health Inequalities team as a salaried portfolio innovation fellow, where my focus is on health inclusion and improving access to care.

My research interests include disease prevention, healthy ageing, frailty and neurodegenerative conditions. I am committed to reducing health inequalities and ensuring that healthcare services meet the needs of all communities.

I graduated from Leeds University Medical School in 2015, and I have completed a Master of Research in Neuroscience at Newcastle University, with a particular focus on Parkinson’s disease.

Research

Research Interests:

My research is based within the Centre of Psychiatry and Mental Health, under the supervision of Professor Nathan Davies. I am interested in exploring frailty, dementia, healthy ageing and neurodegenerative conditions, with a health inequalities focus and the design of practical interventions to be used in clinical practice.

I aim to develop research that supports meaningful, practical change which translates into primary care, improving outcomes and access for underserved communities.
