I am Canadian trained - medical school at Western University, London, Ontario, and Internal Medicine residency and fellowship in Gastroenterology at McMaster University, Hamilton Canada. I am dual board certifed by the RCPSC (Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada). I have been in community practice my entire career and did therapeutic ERCP for nearly 30 years. I have a masters degree in clinical epidemiology. I have research interests, mostly in upper GI disorders - like ulcer disease, reflux and H. pylori a bacteria in the stomach and how to treat this infection is a particular research interest. I am interested in clinical medicine and helping you, the patient, as much as possible, realizing that I cannot wave a wand and make any issue disappear. I have always been a patient advocate.

My research interests started with Helicobacter pylori. I published the first meta-analysis (1992) on the treatment of Hp and treatment has been and remains my primary interest (Toronto consensus 2016). I have looked at the effects of Hp on dyspepsia and with the CADET (Canadian Adult Dyspepsia Empiric Treatment) study group, we performed a number of relevant, randomized controlled trials to get direct evidence to develop management guidelines for upper GI symptoms/disorders (CanDys guidelines). I am interested in the related areas of upper GI - GERD. I have contributed to national guidelines in GERD consensus conferences. I am an expert in PPI's, a mainstay of treatment of upper GI disorders. Teaching practising physicians has always been a keen interest. I also have background in evidence-based medicine with a masters degree from McMaster University, Hamilton, Canada.
