How long have you worked at 7Springs?
9 years

How do you feel about working at 7Springs as a GP?
7Springs is a beautiful practice filled with compassionate caring people who love to help each other out and are fun to be around. I feel so honoured to be able to journey with people in their lives and help or support them where I can.

What are you areas of special interest:

What is your billing Policy?

Not all concession cards carry a discount; our discounted fees are for our patients in genuine need.

Hobbies:
I love learning new things so I have plenty of hobbies but I wouldn’t profess to be an expert at any of them. Over the last few years, I’ve enjoyed singing, messing around on the piano, teaching myself to play the ukulele and learning jiujitsu.

What do you see as the future for General Practice in Australia?
I hope to see it valued by the government as good, cost-saving preventative medicine.

What is your best medical tip for your patients?
Move regularly. Find a sport or activity you enjoy, and do it regularly. Even better if it’s with people you enjoy hanging around. Go for a walk. Check out your local gym. Try parkrun/parkwalk.

Anything else you would like to share with our patients?
Prevention is much better than a cure. Come and see us before you have a long list of concerns.
