I’ve been working as a doctor for more than 25 years, with a particular passion for rural and regional medicine and providing accessible, compassionate care to patients in these communities.
I currently work across Parkes, Cowra and Forbes, providing care across a range of settings including rural emergency departments, hospital wards, palliative care and Hospital in the Home (HITH) services. These experiences have given me a broad range of clinical experience and a strong appreciation for the importance of personalised, patient-centred care.
I’m also accredited by the Ministry of Health to provide Voluntary Assisted Dying (VAD) services, an area of medicine that I approach with compassion, respect and a strong sense of responsibility.
When I’m not working, you’ll usually find me at the gym. I’m there seven days a week, so you could say fitness is a fairly big part of my routine!
I’m also a strict vegetarian and enjoy maintaining a healthy and active lifestyle.
I have a son who is currently studying medicine, which certainly gives us plenty to talk about — and keeps me on my toes!
My Motto “Sometimes it’s best to leave things in God’s hands. In doing so, we may come to see God’s hands in everything.”
I look forward to working with you and your team and supporting you in providing safe, high-quality care to your patients.
