I’ve spent the last 14 years working as a Rural Generalist, primarily based in Margaret River doing a combination of Emergency, Inpatient care and Anaesthetics along with working in a local General Practice. I have also worked at Busselton Hospital Emergency Department over the same period and have greatly enjoyed several locum placements to the Kimberley.

Being a Rural Generalist provides the amazing opportunity to provide continuity of care for patients and their families between the community and hospital setting over the duration of their life. You are seen and respected as a valued part of the community. The variety of work roles also ensures that everyday at work is both challenging and interesting.

Alongside all of this, I am blessed to live in an amazing region and have so many opportunities. I try to get out and surf, mountain bike or run trails in the forests as often as I can. And when I get a day off in the week I try to sneak off with my wife to one of the wineries for lunch as weekends are usually taken up with kids sports and activities.
