I’m an anaesthetist in Ballarat, the main referral city for Western Victoria. I work in both the public and private health systems, and have a very varied workload across most surgical specialties, including a fair percentage of time working as an intensive care consultant. I graduated from medicine in 1997, and undertook specialty training in Victoria, New South Wales and Scotland. After becoming a specialist anaesthetist in 2006 I moved to Ballarat, where in addition to my anaesthetic practice, I have a busy winery, and a very active family.
