Biography
I attended the National University of Ireland, Galway for medical school. I trained with the Royal College of Physicians, Ireland, in Palliative Medicine. I have worked in places like St. Vincent’s Hospital, St Luke’s Hospital, Galway University Hospital, Milford Hospice, Marymount Hospice, and Our Lady’s Hospice Dublin. I have gained a vast amount of experience dealing with patientswith life-limiting disease.
I have been a Palliative Consultant for three years, and have worked as a Locum Consultant in the Midlands, Mayo and Galway. I also have a special interest in clinical education, and I am a clinical tutor for NUIG in the Portiuncula Academy, Ballinasloe.
I am interested in helping patients with life-limiting disease to live as actively as possible through impeccable assessment and treatment of pain and other symptoms. I have a good working relationship with the Community Palliative Care Home Teams, as well as allied oncology colleagues.
Referrals can be sent by post, by fax, by scanning letter to my email address, or by contacting my secretary Deirdre (087 4430634).
I look forward to working with you over the coming years.
