Areas of Expertise:

I am an experienced NHS Consultant in Paediatric Intensive Care and General Paediatrics and 
I am experienced in assessing (and their management) babies and children. I have 
experience in the assessment of children with medical conditions; developmental delay; 
learning difficulties; physical abuse and neglect. I undertake independent assessments in a 
variety of areas and write reports for the courts relating to children and parents or other 
family members.  
 
From a medicolegal perspective, I have prepared expert reports for the last 5 years, with 
both claimant and defendant reports in medical negligence cases, and criminal proceedings 
on behalf of the court and defence. I have prepared more than 10 reports for the Civil, 
Family and Criminal Courts; and given expert evidence in Court accordingly. These reports 
have covered public and private law assessments of children; and assessment of injuries 
(including their causality), and assessing concerns raised by individuals (including parents, 
solicitors and/or Police) about the care of babies and children in both acute (District General 
and Tertiary Hospitals) and chronic (including their care at home and other settings). 
I have recently completed the Cardiff University Bond Solon Expert Witness Certificate 
(2021), including Cross-Examination Day course; Courtroom Skills Training course; Excellence 
in Report Writing course; and Law and Procedure 1 and 2. I have also completed multiple 
courses and workshops with indemnity providers (MPS, MDU and MDDUS), covering aspects 
of risk management, personal indemnity risks and medico legal report writing. I accordingly 
have private medical indemnity insurance with the MDDUS.
I am seasoned trainer, teacher, facilitator, executive coach, mentor and media tor with
extensive experience delivering comprehensive lectures and programs. An excellent 
facilitation and education of individuals, groups and teams. I am able to demonstrate an 
adaptable leadership style, building structured teams and encouraging flexibility and 
collaboration. I consistently maintain professionalism and integrity in all aspects of life.
I am an analytical thinker with a methodical approach to problem solving, as well as displaying 
advocacy, counselling, and negotiating skills in clinical and non-clinical environments.
