Writer & Thinker

Thinking and writing are the same discipline for me. I don’t write to be seen; I write so the right truths get their day in the light—and the right people can act. The work is philosophical but grounded: evidence, lived reality, and a refusal to look away.

For broad audiences (including The Guardian), I’ve written on the right to public healthcare, COVID-19, health inequality, air pollution, arts in health, and child poverty. In peer-reviewed journals (colleg BMJ, The Lancet, and others), I build the case for medicine that faces power head-on.

At King’s College London, my PhD develops Justice-Based Medicine. Translating those ideas beyond the academy led to More than Medicine—my Substack and live laboratory for 21st-century health, where I test arguments in public and invite principled debate.

Not content—consequences.

For the curious public, I translate big ideas into human language—stories and arguments that change how you see health and power, without dumbing anything down. For professionals across sectors—clinicians, teachers, social workers, designers, policymakers—I write for the moment when “being a good professional” stops being enough, offering frameworks and field-tested moves for acting with integrity inside imperfect systems. For media and publishers, I’m a coherent voice with range: evidence you can trust, a style that travels, and arguments that hold up under edit and airtime. And in the scholarly world, I publish in leading peer-reviewed journals (including BMJ and The Lancet), contributing health-systems research and ethics scholarship that underpins everything I write in public.
