As a GP with a broad training in General Practice, Urgent Care, Emergency Medicine, and Rural & Remote Medicine, I am passionate about innovations to primary care associated with upskilling GPs with Special Interests and Allied Health Practitioners. There is much work traditionally done in hospitals that can be safely transferred to the community. This can be done cost effectively, with same or better outcomes in efficacy of treatment and with same or better patient satisfaction. I am also passionate about high quality, extended hours, patient centered Integrated Primary Care Centres (IPCCs). My life work has been in successful models of IPCCs in cities, peri-urban communities, country towns both over-doctored and under-doctored on both sides of the Tasman. As well as being a GP, my other careers have been in Basketball playing on the New Zealand National Team and as a Pastor. There is great resource in sports and faith groups in the community that can help the health of the nation. I am currently the Australian Convenor for the RNZCUC and a Medical Director. I have led on floor by influencing and leading colleagues, speaking at forums and conferences, publishing, and television presentations. I recently submitted my PhD manuscript entitled ‘Management of non-life-threatening urgent conditions in the community. A case study in SouthEast Qld’. The PhD with publication is through the University of the Sunshine Coast. I hope to continue publishing post doctorate in the fields of Health Sector Management and Urgent Care in IPCCs.
