I am a vocationally registered General Practitioner with clinical experience across a broad range of patient needs. Throughout my career, I have developed a strong clinical interest in skin cancer medicine, completing advanced training in dermoscopy and skin cancer management.
Skin cancer is the most common cancer in Australia, and early detection is the single greatest factor in improving patient outcomes. My goal is to provide thorough, evidence-based skin assessments alongside the full-spectrum care you'd expect from your regular GP.
I consult at 5 Boronia Road in Vermont VIC 3133, and offer both routine GP appointments and dedicated skin cancer checks. I believe in clear communication — explaining what I see, what it means, and what the next step is.
I offer the full range of general practice services, with particular depth in skin cancer assessment and management. All consultations are conducted with care and attention to detail.
Systematic head-to-toe examination using dermoscopy to identify suspicious lesions, atypical moles, and early-stage skin cancers.
Advanced dermoscopic analysis of pigmented and non-pigmented lesions to distinguish benign from malignant pathology without biopsy where possible.
Diagnosis and initial management of basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma, with appropriate referral pathways when required.
Minor surgical procedures including shave biopsy, punch biopsy, and excision of suitable lesions under local anaesthetic.
Ongoing monitoring programs for patients with a personal or family history of melanoma, multiple atypical naevi, or immunosuppression.
Comprehensive GP care including chronic disease management, preventive health, mental health, acute illness, vaccinations, and health assessments.
Learn about basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma — the three most common forms of skin cancer, their warning signs, and how they differ.
Practical guidance on SPF, protective clothing, UV index, and building sun-safe habits — especially important in the Australian climate.
Frequency of skin checks depends on your individual risk factors. Most adults benefit from an annual check; those at higher risk may need 6-monthly review.
Not every spot is cancer. Learn about seborrhoeic keratoses, dermatofibromas, lipomas, and other benign lesions commonly confused with malignancy.
If you notice any of these warning signs, do not wait for your next scheduled check. Book an appointment promptly.
