Specialist training
Always passionate about obstetrics and gynaecology, I underwent specialist training in both the UK and Australia. I completed advanced training in maternal fetal medicine, focusing on high risk pregnancies, before an Australian Gynaecological Endoscopy Society (AGES) fellowship in advanced laparoscopy and hysteroscopy, during which time I received the AGES/AAGL presentation award.
My ethos
I work at both the Royal Hospital for Women and Prince of Wales Private Hospital. I regularly make active contributions to education, research and clinical services, and was recognised with the Staff Contribution Award in the Public hospital. I'm committed to life-long learning, and always looks to provide evidence-based care in the context of good communication and collaboration.

I strive to have a positive impact on women’s health across obstetrics and gynaecology, and feel privileged to work as part of a team that prioritises the patient and provides the highest level of care.
