Profile

I have worked as a Specialist Gastroenterologist at Rotorua Hospital since 2004 and as a Private Specialist between 2004 and 2022. I am fully trained in all aspects of Gastroenterology, as well as diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy. Particular interests include, functional gut disorders (irritable bowel syndrome), bowel cancer screening, inflammatory bowel, peptic ulcer and coeliac disease as well as viral hepatitis, cirrhosis and the investigation of abnormal liver function tests.

If there is one thing I enjoy doing above all others, it is spending time with patients trying to understand their symptoms, the impact these have upon their lives and doing my utmost to help.
