Born and raised in Mosgiel, I completed my medical degree at Otago University before moving to Sydney with my wife. 22 years and 2 children later we returned home to be closer to family and join the team at Roslyn Health Centre.

I have a special interest in mens health, preventative medicine, mental health and older people’s medicine.
