Neurosurgeon & spine surgeon

My academic background includes an MBBS from the University of London with Distinction, a BSc in Psychology with Distinction, an MSc in Neuroscience from the University of Edinburgh with Distinction, and a DPhil from Oxford University, where I focused on degenerative disease and neuroplasticity. I completed my neurosurgical training through the highly competitive East Midlands Rotation in the UK, gaining further experience in Nottingham, Edinburgh, Leeds, and Dublin.  I am a Fellow of both the European Board of Neurosurgical Societies (FEBNS) and the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh (FRCSEd SN). My sub-speciality fellowship training includes complex spine surgery and cranial neuro-oncology. I remain actively involved in research, teaching, and clinical governance, with numerous publications and international presentations. I am a member of several professional societies and am dedicated to evidence-based, patient-centered care. My subspeciality interests include minimally invasive, endoscopic and complex spinal procedures, as well as management of brain tumours.​ In July 2024 I was elected Assistant Professor of Neurosurgery at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. After 27 years in the UK I returned to Greece to enthusiastically take up the University post in Thessaloniki.
