I am a dedicated and experienced Specialist Anaesthetic Doctor with a strong passion for providing high-quality care to patients undergoing surgery. With many years of experience in anaesthesia, I am committed to making the operative experience as seamless and comfortable as possible for patients.

As a member of the Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists (ANZCA), I remain dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of practice through continuous professional development and education. I am particularly focused on staying abreast of the latest advancements and techniques in anaesthesia to ensure my patients benefit from the best and most current practices in the field.
I believe in creating a positive and supportive environment for both my patients and the surgical team, and I am always seeking ways to enhance the safety, comfort, and overall experience of every individual under my care.
