He joined the Northumbria vocational training scheme in 2006 . This was a pivotal point in his dream of becoming a complete doctor, who would look after the whole family.

As part of the training, he became grounded in palliative care having trained at St Benedict’s hospice. This was a humbling period but which led to his improved understanding and knowledge of the practicalities of providing excellent care for people who are in the last days of their lives.

He also had a long stint at the Newcastle diabetes centre where he acquired indelible experience on the primary care management of diabetes mellitus .

His paediatric job at Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Gateshead seemed to be the best as it made him consolidate his long term interest in looking after children.

He has since worked as a consultant family physician.
