This period of training rotated through; St Georges Hospital (London), The Royal Alexandra Children’s Hospital (Brighton), a Fellowship at Starship Children’s Health (Auckland), Southampton Children’s Hospital and Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children (London).

I completed my training and was awarded a Certificate of Completion of Training in Specialist Paediatric Surgery by the General Medical Council of the United Kingdom in 2016. I am currently vocationally registered with the Medical Council of New Zealand as a Specialist Paediatric Surgeon.
