I spent the next 12 months in Australia as a Medical Registrar at Gosford Hospital, before completing my training at St Thomas Hospital, London, in 2002. I migrated to Australia in 2003 with my family, upon obtaining my current position, and have lived and worked on the Central Coast since that time. I have significant experience in the management of the full range of gastroenterological, liver and general medical conditions.
