Clinical negligence is my main area of work outside of my busy cardiology practice. The specialist areas which
I cover are listed below. My main interests are congenital heart disease and electrophysiology (the study of
abnormal heart rhythms). I have been involved with many civil and criminal cases with respect to these areas.
I have a firm commitment to delivering high quality reports within 4-6 weeks of instruction.
I work in an adult and paediatric hospital. My paediatric practice is based in Our Lady's Hospital, and my adult
practice is based at the Mater Hospital in Dublin. My medicolegal practice is primarily UK based, however
I have undertaken international cases on occasions if deemed to be appropriate. I am able to travel to see clients
