Freelancer Overview

I have clinical experience in reviewing complex ophthalmic imaging and supporting image-based diagnostic decision-making for remote clinics. I have previously worked with Mercor working on ophthalmology- focussed AI training projects. It has been rewarding to contribute clinical expertise towards improving the accuracy, reasoning and safety of AI systems in ophthalmology. Nineteen years of clinical ophthalmic experience can make a significant contribution to AI training by providing the depth of real-world expertise needed to develop accurate, reliable, and clinically relevant healthcare AI systems. An experienced ophthalmic professional brings an understanding of disease presentation, diagnostic interpretation, patient management, and clinical decision-making that cannot be replicated by technical knowledge alone. Education includes Bachelor of Science, Southampton University (2002) and Bachelor of Medicine, Southampton University (2003). AI-training focus includes data types such as Medical and DICOM and labelling workflows including evaluation and rating.

Labeling Experience

Clinical experience reviewing complex ophthalmic imaging and supporting image-based diagnostic decision-making for remote pathways and potential AI-enabled diagnostic/triage workflows.

Don't disclose

Provided expert oversight of image-based ophthalmic diagnostic workflows, including independently reviewing complex ophthalmic imaging and feedback to improve diagnostic accuracy and safety. Supported remote diagnostic pathways for medical retina by using image interpretation to guide clinical decision-making and triage. Served as a clinical SME to inform AI-enabled diagnostic and triage pathways through ophthalmology input. • Reviewed complex retina/ophthalmic images for diagnostic accuracy. • Contributed expert feedback aimed at reducing diagnostic error and improving patient safety. • Helped shape remote diagnostic/triage processes using image-based decision-making. • Mentored and advised digital and clinical teams on ophthalmology-specific labeling/interpretation needs for AI systems.
