Before founding iQonic, he held senior roles at Aurora Clinics and The Private Clinic, and trained within the NHS including at Stoke Mandeville. In September 2024 Aesthetics Journal reported him as the first surgeon in the UK to provide Mia Femtech®, the minimally invasive breast augmentation performed through a small incision in the armpit.
His approach is conservative and proportion-led. Most of his patients want a result that looks like their own body on a good day, and much of his consultation time is spent helping people decide whether surgery is right for them at all.
