In the early 1930s he helped to establish the Catholic Medical Guild of St Luke. He became a respected counsellor—in more than medical matters—to Church leaders such as Cardinal (Sir) Norman Gilroy. With J. H. McClemens, he was a founder of the Newman Association of Catholic Graduates at the university; from 1953 he was chairman of Sancta Sophia College council. ADB entry
