Biography
These days home is Island Bay on Wellington’s south coast, where he arrived after studying medicine and initial practice in Newcastle, New South Wales. He still likes a good surf, but it’s the public health medicine training that has brought him and his young family to Wellington and the opportunity to work at PHARMAC was one not to be missed. Public health, he says, is “often about the things you don’t notice when they work well, but which make the news when they don’t.”
