Profile

I grew up in Wellington and completed my medical degree at Otago University where I met my husband Jim. We returned to the family farm in Eastern Southland where I began working in General Practice at the Gore Medical Centre in 1981. I enjoyed the balance between farming, family life and general practice. In 1996 I became a partner in the Practice.
Having brought up our own family, our ongoing involvement in farming and the rural community has brought a worthwhile dimension to my role as a rural GP.
I have been a GP teacher with the College of GP’s vocational training program since 2005 and have been greatly encouraged by the calibre and capabilities of the GP trainees we have hosted. Our practice continues to have a long-term commitment to GP training for medical students, GP registrars and nursing students.
My journey in medicine in recent years has included looking beyond the biomedical with a more preventative holistic and integrated approach, including nutritional medicine. My other areas of medical interest include minor surgery and women’s health.
