About Me
I am a specialist Obstetrician, Gynecologist and a laparoscopic surgeon with 20 years of experience in women’s’ health. My private practice is based in Box Hill and in Waverly Private in Melbourne and I have public appointments in Eastern Health (Box Hill, Angliss, Blackburn) and Mercy Health.
I do have a special interest in minimal invasive surgeries (laparoscopy and Robotic), and I have had special training on complex keyhole gynecological surgeries, from the world’s leading hospitals in the UK and Australia meaning that I am able to provide high standards of care.

About Me
My vision is to provide an exceptional, welcoming and compassionate service to families on their female reproductive health issues. I also provide shared care for pregnant women, from the simplest to the most complex pregnancies.
I am passionate and deeply committed to what I do. I am open, honest, and supportive and I take the utmost care and time that makes each patient feel safe, empowered, and let them make informed decisions. I strongly believe that personalized care with thorough listening is the key to achieve the best outcome for any given situation.
I do have a special interest in minimal invasive surgeries (keyhole), and I have had special training on complex keyhole gynecological surgeries, from the world’s leading hospitals in the UK and Australia meaning that I am able to provide high standards of care.
I actively involved in teaching and research.
