Two years as Medical Officer in the Royal Army Medical Corps with Forces Families began his interest in personal, psychological and social aspects of illness in childhood. This led to posts in paediatrics and neurosurgery at the Morriston Hospital, Swansea, where he met his wife, Dr Betsan Phillips, a niece of Martyn Lloyd-Jones.
