Summary
Consultant Gastroenterologist and Endoscopist at the Lynch Syndrome and Family Cancer Clinic, Polyposis Registry and Wolfson Endoscopy Unit, at St Mark’s Hospital, London.
PhD in Cancer Genetics from Imperial College and the University of London 2009.
We perform genetic testing, endoscopic and other screening for gastrointestinal cancer in susceptible populations. I am also interested in caring for patients with other GI diseases with colleagues.
I am currently continuing my research interests in clinical and molecular aspects of gastrointestinal pathology, particularly in the field of endoscopy, colorectal, pancreatic and other GI cancers, GI polyps and other neoplasia.
