Medical Support and Consultancy for Expeditions, TV and Film.
Medical Support for Extreme Environments
From remote jungle to high altitude, I provide expert medical support and consultancy in unpredictable, high-risk environments worldwide.
With 15 years of experience in expeditions and the TV/film industry, I bring proven expertise in delivering safe, effective care under pressure. I’ve evacuated trekkers at high altitude in the Himalayas and Andes, managed a suspected stroke aboard a moving train in Eastern Siberia, resuscitated preterm babies in rural Myanmar, undertaken a search and rescue mission for shipwrecked crew in the Pacific, and treated burns victims after a devastating forest fire in Madagascar.
These experiences have honed my ability to adapt, improvise, and lead in the most demanding conditions. My greatest teachers are the patients I’ve served and the dedicated professionals I’ve worked alongside. I thrive in fast-moving, high-performing teams where cohesion, clarity, and grit matter most.
