Experience

Dr Cummings has worked for Southampton University Hospitals Trust since October 2009.

I am a busy consultant gastroenterologist at Southampton General doing a mix of ward work, out-patients, endsocopy and research. I look after general  gastroenterology patients and have a subspeciality interest in Inflamatory Bowel Disease. I spent 5 years developing this clinical and research interest at the John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford prior to starting work in Southampton. 

Key achievements

I am clinical lead for IBD services with responsibility for not only running the IBD team including the nurse specialists, the IBD MDT, and the virtual clinic but also developing the service with the aim of meeting the National IBD Standards of care. I have active research collaborations within Southampton University as well as externally and am a principle investigator for 2 NIHR studies
