Alongside my colleague 'Dr Joe', I am the on-screen doctor for World Extreme Medicine in the hit US Reality TV Show ‘Survivor’ (CBS). I provide on-screen primary and emergency medical care for the contestants during shoot, whilst also leading a team of eight medics that cares for a large crew of 300-400 people behind the scenes.

Working with a talented and dynamic team, we run wilderness medicine courses across the globe, an annual international conference and provide medical cover for TV & film.

I have practiced my craft all over the globe in the harshest environments: from the dramatic medevac of trekkers with severe acute mountain sickness from beneath the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, managing a suspected stroke on a train hurtling through Eastern Siberia, performing a large search and rescue operation for shipwrecked crew in remote Pacific Islands to treating burns victims in the wake of a massive forest fire in central Madagascar.

MY ROLES

NHS GP

I love being a GP. I love the variety, the patients and the clinical problems they bring. I work on a sessional basis to release time and flexibility for everything else.
