Teck was educated at the Victoria Institution in Kuala Lumpur, read medicine at Sheffield University and graduated with Master of Laws from Cardiff University. After various teaching hospital appointments in Leeds and Glasgow, he set up his general practice in Leicester in 1982. He was senior police surgeon to the Leicestershire Constabulary and medical advisor for firearms licensing. Teck has published a critique of the Cullen Report on the Dunblane tragedy, and has served on two research ethics committees. He is a car enthusiast, enjoys badminton and tennis, but is most relaxed with his wife and their three children. Teck is delighted to return to Yorkshire and represent the Conservatives in Bradford North. Teck's Experience
Teck became involved in politics five years ago, and has campaigned successfully in local issues such as the proposed LIFT relocation of a Health Centre away from its community, better primary care resources in an inner city area, and inappropriate planning applications at the county level. The Daily Telegraph dubbed Teck's establishment in 2002 of a health scheme to augment state provisions as "the NHS with a silver lining." The project encouraged responsibility and quality in healthcare. In 2003, Teck organised and addressed the Policy Forum on Health at Leicester University. He has exposed the flawed management of health by the Labour Government in televised interviews and debates. For our medical profession to be truly innovative, stay at the forefront of medical advances and ultimately improve healthcare, Teck believes that the stifling bureaucracy must be dismantled. He is a member of the Local Medical Committee, the incoming president of the local BMA Division and president-elect of the Leicestershire Medico-Legal Society. Teck is a member of the Racist Incidents Review Panel. His proposals for immigration and harmony in our society have been presented in the Leicester Mercury and were welcomed by all the communities in Leicestershire. Teck stood in Eyres Monsell at the City Council elections in 2003, and launched a Conservative ward branch to encourage Asian membership of the Party in Spinney Hill, where he holds a popular and successful community clinic. To him, there is no such thing as an "unwinnable" area! Conservatives - Working for Bradford North As the Conservative candidate for Bradford North, Teck hopes to unite and serve its diverse communities. He wishes to work with all businesses located within the constituency, and introduce new ones, to achieve a dynamic and modern economy for the area. Having considerable insight into policing and the perspectives of offenders, Teck will be making a multi-pronged approach to tackling crime, including working with the Police and other relevant organisations over resource and strategy, and resolving the cycle of re-offending by ensuring the right support for drug addicts. In the
provision of healthcare facilities, Teck will be making contact with
North Bradford PCT and Bradford Royal Infirmary regarding rectifying
the deficiencies in the delivery systems and exploring other formats.
