01 / About
A GP for every chapter of life.
From a child’s first check-up to managing health over the years, general practice works best when there is room to listen and look at the bigger picture.
I’m an Adelaide-based general practitioner and a Fellow of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners. My work spans everyday health concerns, preventive care and longer-term conditions.
Alongside seeing patients, I’m involved in medical practice leadership and supporting other doctors in general practice. I value practical, respectful care and helping people understand the choices in front of them.
