I am a 0.5 FTE Staff Specialist Gastroenterologist & Hepatologist at the Royal Hobart Hospital (RHH) and Consultant at Calvary Hospital, Tasmania.

​

I have been granted Specialist Registration in Gastroenterology & Hepatology and am a member of The Gastroenterological Society of Australia (GESA).

​

I was admitted as a Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Physicians in January 2012.

​

I have a special interest in Hepatology and oversee the public RHH Liver Clinic with experience in treating and managing patients with liver disease, including liver transplant patients.

I have also established a lead role in oesophageal mamometry and pH monitoring at the RHH and am a member of the RHH Endoscopy Access Action Group.

​

I have an additional keen interest and training in Capsule Endoscopy (PillCam) with Conjoint Committee recognition.   

​

I am a senior Clinical Lecturer at the UTAS School of Medicine and co-supervisor of the accredited Gastroenterology and Hepatology registrar training program at the RHH.

​

Born in Burnie and growing up in Hobart I attended Corpus Christi Primary School in Bellerive, St. Virgils' College Austins Ferry, Guilford Young College Hobart and the University of Tasmania (UTAS).

​

I completed my basic Physician training at RHH and undertook my advanced training in Gastroenterology and Hepatology at the Royal Melbourne Hospital, the Monash Medical Centre (MMC) and Launceston General Hospital (LGH).

​

I returned to live in Hobart in 2012 with my wife Rachael, a fellow Tasmanian, who is a Pharmacist.  We made the decision that Tasmania is where we wanted to live, work and raise our family.

​

When not spending time with my family you can find me in the water surfing or on my skateboard ramp.
