He completed his MB ChB at the University of Bristol in 1992. Then he achieved higher surgical training in ophthalmology through the South Thames rotation of the London Deanery by 2001. Subsequently, he pursued subspecialty training in medical retina at both Moorfields Eye Hospital and St George’s Hospital.

This ensures that Newmedica Brigg maintains high standards of patient care and clinical governance.

Additionally, he contributes to national retina guidelines through research collaborations. He regularly publishes audit findings in peer‑reviewed journals and presents at international conferences. Consequently, his clinical practice remains aligned with the latest evidence‑based standards.
