A big welcome to Ivana.
Dr Ivana Ng-D’Acunto began her medical career working across a wide range of hospitals within the North Metropolitan Health Service, gaining valuable experience in both public and private settings across secondary and tertiary care. She then went on to complete her training as a General Practitioner.
Ivana enjoys the full breadth of general practice with a particular focus in evidence-based medicine and preventative health. She takes a holistic approach, combining lifestyle and medical management to help patients stay well and live their healthiest lives.
Outside of work, Ivana enjoys crafting, reading, and all things performing arts – when she’s not spending time with her beloved pet bird.
“I love the variety general practice offers and I am passionate about being that first point of care for patients, with a strong focus on prevention and long-term health”.
Watch this space, she is currently gaining qualifications for Aviation medicals, with aims towards further occupational health training.
