Biography

Dr Sunil Kumar qualified in 1998 from Jawahar Lal Nehru Medical College Belgaum, Karnataka University India. He was trained in anaesthetics in West Yorkshire (Leeds, Bradford, Huddersfield and Halifax). He attained membership of the RCoA and Fellowship of the College of Anaesthetists of Ireland. He was appointed as an SAS anaesthetist in the year 2006, and is currently an Associate Specialist at University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay NHS Trust.

Sunil’s main areas of interest are trauma and obstetric anaesthesia, along with remote procedural sedation.

Outside anaesthesia, he is passionate about lifestyle medicine and always keen to empower and educate as many people as possible to live long and healthy lives by leveraging simple lifestyle changes. He is a certified Lifestyle Medicine Physician consultant and holds a Lead Tutor position for the British Society of Lifestyle Medicine. When he is not working, Sunil is busy spending time with his family, ideally outdoors. He is a keen walker and nature photographer, and a big Bollywood fan.

If he had not become an anaesthetist, he would have been a metabolic medicine physician or an artificial-intelligence engineer.
