One of the great things about private practice is that during your pregnancy journey we will get to know each other and develop a trust that not only isn’t possible in the public system but will actually have a very real and positive impact on your pregnancy experience and outcome. It’s very important to me that during our time together you feel comfortable sharing your feelings, fears, concerns and desires and understand that you will not be judged. Perhaps a good way of getting things started is by me telling you a bit about my background.

I grew up in the outer suburbs of Melbourne and went on to complete a science degree at The University of Melbourne. I hadn’t always intended on being a doctor and certainly wasn’t pushed by my non-medical parents. I then moved to Sydney and completed my medical degree at The University of Sydney. Following this, I returned to Melbourne where I started to specialise in Emergency Medicine but then realised Obstetrics and Gynaecology was the perfect specialty for me. I undertook most of my specialty training at Monash Medical Centre and then moved back to Sydney to do a fellowship in Obstetrics at The Royal Prince Alfred Hospital. During this time I completed a Masters in Reproductive Medicine and I am currently also a busy fertility specialist affiliated with Monash IVF.

In early 2018 I opened my private practice…..and I love it! Obstetrics is one of the few remaining specialties where there is still an element of creativity involved. It is also one where having good clinical skills, common sense and emotional intelligence makes a very real difference to outcomes. I love that I have the opportunity to curate an exceptional team to be available to you and create a space and opportunities to enhance your pregnancy journey. I pay attention to detail and will never settle for anything but the best, as that is what you deserve as a patient of mine!
