My practice encompasses the medical management of chronic pain conditions, including fibromyalgia, joint pain, and more complex pain syndromes. I collaborate closely with each patient, crafting personalised treatment plans that align with their unique needs and aspirations. As a professional pain consultant in the UK, my approach prioritises patient-centred care, ensuring that every individual receives the highest level of support.
In my practice, I offer a wide range of pain interventions such as pain injections, including steroid injections for chronic pain relief, and pain infusions for more persistent pain conditions.

Through a compassionate and empathetic approach, I aim to create a supportive environment that addresses not only the physical but also the emotional aspects of living with chronic pain.
