I graduated from the Royal Veterinary College, University of London (BVetMed) in 1992, with a distinction in Small Animal elective studies. I have been working almost exclusively with companion animals since becoming a member of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (MRCVS).

After several years of extramural studies, involving protracted home study, intensive residential courses and one-to-one tutoring by a recognised RCVS Specialist, I sat the clinical, written and oral examinations in August 1999. I was subsequently awarded the postgraduate Certificate of Veterinary Dermatology (CertVD). I have been seeing internal referrals and client-driven second opinions for over ten years and offering an external dermatology referral service since 2000. As a member of the British Dermatology Study Group and the European Society of Veterinary Dermatology, I actively attend national and international continuing education congresses, as well as worldwide internet discussion groups.

I am now offering a dedicated companion animal dermatology referral service centred in Brighton, although I will be travelling to other centres within the South East.

My continuing work in general practice ensures that I maintain a wider focus on the companion animal care – especially seeing many first opinion dermatology cases. The routine healthcare consultations, elective and emergency surgical procedures, and especially the in-depth medical investigations, alongside other colleagues, enable me to keep abreast of the widespread developments in diagnostic tests and therapeutic options within the ever expanding discipline of general small animal practice. I am also a member of the British Small Animal Veterinary Association.
