My current role
I care for patients with bladder cancer, from diagnosis through to treatments such as bladder instillations and major surgery, as well as long-term follow-up. I have a particular interest in improving outcomes and survivorship for women undergoing radical cystectomy.
Alongside my clinical work, I serve as the departmental Resident and Fellowship Lead, with responsibility for postgraduate surgical training, assessment, and the recruitment of senior fellows. I am also actively involved in research and contribute to national and international bladder cancer groups, including the International Bladder Cancer Group and the Getting It Right First Time bladder cancer panel.
Previous history
I completed specialist training in urology in London and South East England, becoming a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons in 2020. During this time, I was awarded a Fulbright scholarship to undertake a dedicated bladder cancer research fellowship at the MD Anderson Cancer Center in the United States.
I then undertook a Robotic Bladder Cancer Fellowship at Guy’s & St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust, focusing on advanced bladder cancer surgery and complex pelvic oncology. I also completed a King’s Health Partners Executive Fellowship in Surgical Leadership.
