Professor David Russell-Jones

I was appointed Professor of Diabetes and Endocrinology at the university of Surrey and Consultant Physician at the Royal Surrey County Hospital in 1998.  Before this I was Senior Lecturer/Consultant Physician at Guy's and St Thomas' Hospital London.  I run a full specialist diabetes and endocrine service including a large pituitary clinic.  I am a full part of the general medical take in addition to running specialist clinics and doing extensive research.  I am an invited speaker at prestigious diabetes and endocrine meetings and numerous international meetings all over the world.  I have been Principle Investigator of a number of large multi-national clinical trials that have changed medical practice.  I was appointed by NHS England to be a member of the 'clinical reference group' for both specialist endocrinology and specialist diabetes.  I am the diabetes and endocrine advisor to the Civil Aviation Authority and head of their ground breaking program that allows insulin treated subjects to pilot aircraft.
