Biography

I am an academic GP with a research interest in informatics and quality improvement (QI) and lead my own research group; from February 2011 I am Professor of Primary Care and Clinical Informatics and Chair in Health Care Management at University of Surrey.

I am trained as an educator and have developed innovative new courses including the UK’s first full time undergraduate informatics degree; I also have a long experience of supervising undergraduate and post graduate students.  

I have been a partner in my practice (Woodbridge Hill Surgery) for over twenty years and have been active in the local health community.  My practice has always been innovative and active in the local health community.  We were first wave Fundholders (a scheme where practice took partial financial responsibility for patient care), I have been PEC (Professional Executive Committee) chair – chair of the senior medical committee in the local health community; my practice was one of six to form the countries first pilot ICO (Integrated Care Organisation), and previously vice-chair of the Practice Based Commissioning group.  

Research Interests

The Clinical Informatics research group I lead has raised over £4 million in funding and published over 150 peer reviewed papers and articles.   I am currently completing a large cluster randomised trial (QICKD study); writing-up an evaluation based on linked hospital, clinic and practice data; and also the world’s largest series of multi-channel consultation videos using the ALFA toolkit.  My research focuses on how routinely collected data can be used for quality improvement and how IT is best used at the point of care.  My quality improvement work has been in: cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease, diabetes, mental health and osteoporosis.  I have led the development of on-line information sources for primary care but latterly focussed more on the evaluation of how these and electronic patient record (EPR) systems might best be incorporated into clinical practice.  I have been active in developing metrics for improving the quality of management of chronic kidney disease, diabetes and mental health.
