The opinion you can instruct
A specialist in thrombosis and haemostasis
I am a Consultant Haematologist at Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge, specialising in thrombosis, haemostasis and non-malignant haematology. My clinical practice includes venous thromboembolism and thromboprophylaxis, anticoagulation, inherited and acquired bleeding disorders, thrombotic microangiopathies (including thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura), and complex haemostasis.
Independent reports are prepared to be impartial and proportionate, consistent with the duties of an expert under CPR Part 35, with particular attention to breach of duty, causation and the interpretation of clinical evidence in complex cases.
