The moment I knew my family was complete. With my two gorgeous girls, in my favourite role. What an immense privilege it is being their Dad.

And how lucky I am to have the best Dad too.

To those I’ve helped become Dads, enjoy this very special day.

And as I spend this Father’s Day with my own little family, my thoughts are also with those of you for whom today is particularly hard.

Thrilled to be have been part of this wonderful event today.

Such fun using my experience as an obstetrician and dad to help parents feel supported and make informed choices about caring for newborn skin.

The day was made even more special seeing so many familiar faces in the room - mums, babies and mums-to-be I’m lucky enough to look after.

And my favourite part - cuddles with Braxxy! Thank you 🩵🩵

Such a special postnatal visit with baby Harvey today, joined by his proud big brothers Levi and Elliot. It’s been such a privilege to be part of this growing family’s journey - from delivering the twins in 2023, to welcoming Kira and Darren’s newest little addition. So many cuddles, smiles and full hearts in one room!

Here with my wonderful colleague and friend after presenting at the Epworth HealthCare Obstetrics and Gynaecology Symposium on Friday.

Being part of events like this reminds me how lucky we are to work in a field that never stops evolving. It’s inspiring to be surrounded by colleagues who are passionate about education and innovation, as this enables us to always provide the gold standard of patient care.

Epworth’s commitment to continuous learning and clinical excellence is something I’m incredibly proud to be part of. Sharing knowledge not only keeps us sharp, but helps shape the future of women’s health - and that future is looking very bright.

Throwback to 2009 - one of my very first night shifts as an Intern at The Royal Melbourne Hospital, after 6 years of medical school.

Still ahead of me at this point - 2 years as a Resident, followed by 6 years as a Registrar honing my skills in Obstetrics and Gynaecology.

Now in my 8th year of private obstetric practice, I look back on this photo from 16 years ago and see someone eager, nervous, and excited. I’m proud of the journey - every long shift, every challenge, every colleague, every patient who taught me something along the way.

I’ve certainly matured a lot since then. Would you have trusted this baby-faced, green, junior doctor to have looked after you?

It’s World Breastfeeding Week. For many women, breastfeeding can be the most challenging part of the entire pregnancy and postnatal journey. From getting the latch right, to managing ni**le discomfort, to wondering whether baby is getting enough milk - breastfeeding can be quite overwhelming!

There is no one right way to feed your baby. What matters most is that you feel supported and confident in your feeding choices, whatever they may be.

My midwifery team and the wonderful lactation consultants are here to guide and support you through this process.

Every one of my patients has a dedicated newborn feeding consultation around 36–37 weeks. This is a personalised discussion tailored to your feeding goals. If breastfeeding is part of that plan, you will cover topics like:
✔️ Antenatal expressing
✔️ Skin-to-skin contact and the breast crawl
✔️ Deep latching techniques
✔️ Feed timing and frequency
✔️ Managing supply and avoiding blocked ducts

After your baby arrives, you’ll also have access to:
✔️ A complimentary Lactation Consultant appointment following discharge from Epworth
✔️ A postnatal midwife check in my rooms within the first two weeks, where feeding support continues

No two feeding journeys look the same; that’s exactly why individualised care matters.
