About Me

I am proud to be a member of the team at Rata Medical. I love my work as a GP and feel privileged to provide care to our patients. I enjoy the variety, the challenges and rewards of General Practice. I strongly believe in the importance of being 'patient-centred' and of relationships in health care, and being an advocate for you. Outside the practice I do some work at the Nelson-Tasman Region Hospice and in sleep medicine, while to relax I enjoy life on a small rural property, outdoor activities (gentle kayaking and cycling), books, art and travel. I have lived and worked in the Nelson-Tasman region for 20 years now, have brought up my family here and feel lucky to call it home.
