Clinical Experience

Dr Mark Alexander-Williams stands at the forefront of private Pain Management consultancy in London.

His professional path led him through roles as an SHO in Bury St Edmunds, followed by a Registrar position in Leicester and within the South Trent rotation.

Taking a hiatus from clinical duties prior to achieving Senior Registrar status, Dr Alexander-Williams delved into research, exploring innovative methods of opiate administration and investigating the impact of anaesthetic agents on respiratory function. During his tenure as a senior registrar, he undertook a sabbatical year in Melbourne, Australia. Later, as a consultant, he devoted six months to refining his skills in intervention pain techniques during a sabbatical in London.
