About Me

I have worked for the NHS for more than 20 years, excluding a 6 year period working for the Medical Research Council when I researched Hearing Disorders. I have been employed as a Consultant Audiologist for the last 16 years within the NHS in the North West and for the last 11 years I have also worked in the Private Health Sector assessing and managing all aspects of Audiological care, including the dispensing of hearing aids.  

I enjoy also my other commitments in education and training: as an Honourary Lecturer in hearing science at the University of Manchester and Manchester Metropolitan University, as Regional Trainer and Tutor for post-graduate Clinical Scientists in Audiology for the North West of England.    

I have rooms at the new Withington Community Hospital in West Didsbury where I have a part time NHS contract as Head of Audiology. This contract separates my NHS commitments from private Audiological work. Both the NHS and private patients benefit from this agreement.
