Diabetes mellitus
- Type 1, type 2 & gestational diabetes
- Insulin initiation & optimisation
- Pumps, CGM & hybrid closed-loop
I am a consultant endocrinologist and clinician-researcher in Melbourne, with specialist expertise in all forms of diabetes, diabetes in pregnancy, osteoporosis and thyroid disease. I consult privately at Suite 49, Cabrini Malvern as part of Malvern Endocrinology & Diabetes.
I completed my undergraduate medical training at Monash University, graduating with Honours in Medicine and a Bachelor of Medical Science with Honours, and undertook physician and endocrinology training at Monash Health, Alfred Health and University Hospital Geelong before being conferred Fellowship of The Royal Australasian College of Physicians.
My PhD at Monash University examined gestational diabetes — risk stratification, clinical prediction modelling and treatment thresholds — supported by the NHMRC, the Australian Academy of Science and Diabetes Australia. I also hold a DRANZCOG, reflecting a particular interest in diabetes and endocrine conditions in pregnancy.
Clinically I see the full breadth of adult endocrinology, with a strong interest in diabetes technology — continuous glucose monitoring, insulin pumps and hybrid closed-loop systems — and a collaborative model of care that keeps referring GPs and allied health closely informed.
“My aim in every consultation is to make it a genuine conversation: understanding what matters most to you, explaining the reasoning behind our decisions, and building a plan that fits your life — not just the textbook.”
Assessment, investigation and ongoing management across adult endocrinology, informed by doctoral research in gestational diabetes and ongoing work in diabetes technology.
As a Research Fellow at the Monash Centre for Health Research and Implementation I continue to work on gestational diabetes and related metabolic conditions — publishing in peer-reviewed journals, presenting at national and international meetings, and contributing to clinical trials in diabetes, obesity and osteoporosis.
I also teach postgraduate medical trainees as a Clinical Lecturer at Monash University, and my doctoral work developed clinical prediction models to better target treatment in gestational diabetes.
New patients are seen by referral from a general practitioner or other specialist. Appointments, referrals, fees and all practical information are handled by the practice rooms at Suite 49, Cabrini Malvern — including my inpatient consultation service at the hospital.
