Joined Albert Street Anaesthetic Group 2026

I graduated from the University of Glasgow in 2013 before moving to Melbourne in 2015, where I undertook my specialist anaesthesia training with the Alfred Hospital as my home hospital. I subsequently completed a paediatric fellowship at the Royal Children’s Hospital, followed by a general fellowship at Monash Clayton with a strong focus on obstetric anaesthesia.

Alongside my private practice, I work as a fractional specialist anaesthetist at the Alfred Hospital and am the Clinical Lead for Obstetric Anaesthesia at Sandringham Hospital. I am passionate about providing high-quality, personalised care, with a particular focus on clear communication and ensuring patients feel informed and comfortable throughout their experience.

Outside of work, I love being active. You’ll usually find me at Pilates, out for a run, or more recently on the golf course — with plenty of enthusiasm and considerably less skill!

I care deeply about making your hospital experience as comfortable and positive as possible, and I’m always happy to chat through any questions or concerns you may have.
