Having trained in Cambridge and St Thomas' in London, I worked in Southampton as a House Physician for Kenneth Robinson in 1966.  I was appointed Consultant Ophthalmologist in 1976, working first at the Eye Hospital in Bedford Place and more recently at the General when the Eye Unit moved there.

From my training days at Moorfields, and a fellowship in Miami, my interests have been  in Medical Retina and Age Related Macular Degeneration.

I developed a medical retinal service in Southampton along with General Ophthalmology being involved in research in Southampton and at Moorfields.  I retired in 2005 continuing for a few years with some Private and GMC Fitness to Practice work.  

Life has always been busy with family, living in Farley Chamberlayne with house and garden, travelling and walking.  For many years I have organised long distance walks to sponsor our local church and others.

No one can say that retirement isn't busy.
