Professional background

Enrico Sorrentino is a consultant in neurocritical care at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery.

After graduating from the medical school of the “Federico II” University of Naples (Italy) in 2005, he completed Anaesthetic training in Italy (2010) and Intensive Care Medicine training in Oxford, UK (2020).

He is a member through examination of the Royal College of Physicians (MRCP) and Fellow of the Faculty of Intensive Care Medicine (FFICM) as well as a diplomate of the European Society of Anaesthesiology.

He also spent a period of research in Cambridge (2009-2010), completed an MA in Medical Ethics and Law with the University of Manchester (2017-2020), and spent a year as a post-CCT fellow in Simulation and Education in Adult Intensive Care in Oxford.
