I work as a GP in Geelong and Spotswood. I’m also medical educator with the RACGP VIC South West medical education team, and Co-Chair of the Victorian New Fellows Committee along with my colleague Dr Seung-Hoon Baek, and our fellow committee members. I was an optometrist for about 15 years before I did medicine. I started off going through physician training, but then I “saw the light” and decided that general practice was a more suitable pathway for me in terms of my interests and personality.
My journey spans across three different continents. I graduated in Pakistan, and in my early career I moved to South Africa and Zimbabwe where I worked in rural and regional areas for seven years as a procedural GP. That was my goal, to be a rural generalist. When I moved to Australia in 2000, I first moved to Queensland, where I was also a procedural GP. Then in 2003, I moved to Sale where I continue to work as a Rural Generalist, with a focus on small town rural generalism, palliative care and mental health.
