Introduction
I qualified as an Occupational Therapist in 1993 and have since had a varied experience in the field of physical disability, both in UK and overseas, particularly in trauma and orthopaedics, neurology, paediatrics and general medicine and surgery. Since 1998 I have undertaken a series of locum positions requiring the ability to work independently at a high level with a varied caseload. Throughout my career I have consistently updated my skills in my key clinical areas in order to maintain my CPD.
I am currently in the process of setting up a care agency including the development of care services.
I accept instructions from both Claimant and Defendant Solicitors and Insurers. I have undergone formal training in the medico-legal process and am fully aware of my responsibilities under the Civil Procedure Rules (CPR) pertaining to Expert Witnesses.
