Professional Profile
My training had taken me all over New Zealand and the World but I always felt drawn to Dunedin. I was born in Dunedin and went to Medical School here (graduated 1992).
I received a scholarship to study and teach anatomy in Dublin (UCD, graduated 1995). I trained in all the Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery Departments in New Zealand (specialist training completed 2004) then subsequently returned to the UK to gain more experience in cosmetic, hand, breast and microsurgery.
I returned to Dunedin in 2007 to start the Plastic Surgery Department and develop and teach a post-graduate anatomy course at the Medical School.
I work at Southern DHB and in private practise.
