I graduated in Medicine at Kazan State Medical University in 2003 and moved to the United Kingdom. In the early part of my career I did Core Surgical Training in Oxford then moved to London with a particular interest in Orthopaedics and gained a wealth of surgical experience. I then changed my career and left surgery behind to enter into General Practice training, gaining membership of the Royal College of General Practitioners in 2018.

I work as a General Practitioner in Colchester, having a GP trainer role at the practice, and I joined Provide Wellbeing in 2019.
