About

Overview

Sam is a HCPC registered, university lecturer in radiography (diagnostic imaging) within the School of Health Sciences (SHS) and is also the 'admissions tutor for the undergraduate radiography programmes'. He has formerly held the position of programme director and clinical director for the radiography (diagnostic imaging) programme.

Prior to joining City in 2018, he worked at Mid Essex Hospitals NHS Trust for approximately seven years, where he took on a number of roles and responsibilities. In 2017, Sam became the youngest recipient of the prestigious 'United Kingdom, Radiographer of the Year Award'.

Whilst predominately working as a Computed Tomography (CT) specialist within the radiology department, he joined a project to become the first diagnostic radiographer to coordinate the Multi Disciplinary Diagnostic Centre (MDC) for the vague symptoms cancer pathway in the UK. His 'pioneering role' within this innovative project allowed him to independently perform patient consultations, put patients onto the pathway, request and perform CT imaging, organise and discuss patients at MDT meetings and allowed him to give patients their results. Under IR(ME)R legislation he was recognised as being a referrer as well as being both an operator and practitioner.

Over the years he has published research articles on CT and has also written trust policy on CT Intravenous (IV) contrast administration. He also works as an expert reviewer for Cancer Research UK and has held positions at the British Standards Institute (BSI) and the Society of Radiographers. Whilst Sam teaches across all year groups at City, he is the module leader for the RD3034 Image Interpretation module, RD3036 Management & Advancement of Radiographic Practice module and #RadInd Radiography Induction module.
