We’re thrilled to welcome Dr Anthony (Tony) Hammond to the IslandHealth team as a Visiting Consultant Rheumatologist!
Dr Hammond brings a wealth of experience from an impressive career in Rheumatology and pain management. After qualifying from Edinburgh Medical School, he trained in Internal Medicine and Rheumatology in Bristol, Bath, and London — including at the renowned National Hospital for Rheumatic Diseases and The Royal Postgraduate Medical School, where he earned his MD with a thesis on lupus (SLE).
As a Consultant at Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells, Dr Hammond developed a subspecialty in interventional treatments for joint and spinal pain. He continues to teach in this area for the Spinal Intervention Society (IPSIS) and now primarily practices privately on Harley Street in Central London.
Appointments to see Dr Hammond can be made by contacting his PA at L’Aumone Surgery on 256517.
In his own words:
“Throughout my career, I’ve looked for alternative ways to help patients when conventional care falls short — from spinal interventions for back pain to the exciting new field of regenerative medicine. I’m looking forward to bringing this expertise to Guernsey and working alongside the IslandHealth Team’

🏃♀️🎉 Huge congratulations to our incredible IslandHealth Doctors & staff members who formed a 5 person marathon relay team (Dr Claire Lane, one of our PAs Emma Bamford, our Neurophysio Anne Coates, Our Ultrasonographer Matt Richard’s and Nurse Ciara Eaton)
Drs Duncan Watt & Mairi Reynolds formed a 2 person relay team and ran a half marathon each.
Both teams did it to raise money for Bowel Cancer Guernsey
Your dedication, teamwork, and commitment to such an important cause are truly inspiring. Every step you took helps raise awareness and funds to support those affected by bowel cancer in our community.
We’re so proud of you—well done! 👏💙
