I qualified as GP in 2012 and have worked in a variety of practices since then. The last few years has seen my develop a passion for respiratory medicine. I currently work in a busy inner city practice with a high prevalence of respiratory disease, in association with a deprived population. I am also a senior clinical lecturer with the General Practice team at the University of Aberdeen and have a clinical lead role focused on improving respiratory outcomes for high risk patients. I am delighted to become part of the wider respiratory community and to begin contributing to improving respiratory education for my colleagues.
