My current role

The clinics that I work at are held for local children with neurodisability and neuromuscular conditions. I complete MDT assessments for developmental concerns in preschool age children and run specialist clinics for genetic conditions. The Down's Syndrome specialist regional clinics are held in tone management of Cerebral Palsy, including treatment with botulinum toxin. The joint MDT clinics are also held with the orthopaedic team regional urology clinics for children with underlying neurological conditions, including joint MDT clinics with the neurosurgeons for spinal anomalies. I also do video-urodynamics performed for children with complex neurological conditions.
