Professional background
After qualification at the University of Stellenbosch in South Africa in 1984, I worked in general practice and hospital medicine for 6 years before pursuing specialist training at the University of Cape Town's Groote Schuur Hospital. Following relocation to the UK in 1997, I worked at a number of hospitals across England and Wales before taking up the invitation in 2001 to lead the development of acute medicine at Wexham Park Hospital.
