Newcastle University

Introduction

I graduated in medicine from Newcastle University in 1974, and my early postgraduate training in obstetrics & gynaecology was in the north-east of England. After a period of research in urogynaecology at St George's Hospital Medical School, London, I was appointed to the University initially as First Assistant in 1981, and became Senior Lecturer (honorary consultant) in Obstetrics and Gynaecology in 1983. In order to further my main clinical and research interest in urogynaecology, I moved to an NHS post as Consultant Gynaecologist and Urogynaecologist (with honorary Senior Lecturer status) in 1991.  I now lead a tertiary level urogynaecology service of national and international reputation.  Particular clinical interests include urodynamic investigation, conservative and surgical management of primary and recurrent pelvic floor dysfunction, and reconstructive surgery for congenital abnormalities of the genital tract; I provide a de facto supra-regional service for management of urogenital fistula which currently handles 20% of the UK workload.
