Staff Spotlight: Dr. Anthony- Senior General Practitioner

Dr. Anthony has been a valued member of the Kambu Health team for over 7 years, serving as one of our Senior General Practitioners. Originally from a small coastal town in Oregon, USA, he has called Australia home for the past 16 years.

In his role, Dr. Anthony is dedicated to supporting the health and wellbeing of the Kambu Health community. He is passionate about preventative care and works closely with patients to manage complex health needs, helping to keep mob healthy and reduce the need for hospital care.

Dr. Anthony finds his work deeply rewarding, particularly the opportunity to build strong, trusting relationships within the community. He especially values spending time with Eldersβ€”listening, learning, and sharing conversations that deepen his understanding of culture and history.

He also appreciates the supportive environment at Kambu Health, where flexible working arrangements and ongoing training opportunities have allowed him to grow professionally. He is currently looking forward to further training in skin cancer care, with the goal of providing more advanced services at the Ipswich Clinic.

Outside of work, Dr. Anthony has a wide range of hobbies. From playing drums in a band and enjoying board games, to the ambitious project of building a pinball machine from scratch, he stays busy. Most importantly, he enjoys spending time with his wife and their dogs.

Thank you, Dr. Anthony, for your ongoing dedication and care for the community.

Last week our Elders were out at the Laidley Family Wellbeing Service recreation room for some arts and crafts.

🌟 Prior to the Easter break, our Elders created some beautiful Easter Rabbit photo frames.

✨Aunty Kaylene, Aunty Rhonda and Aunty Ruth all chose different colours and styles, and they all turned out beautiful.

✨Aunty Lillian made a pretty butterfly for one of her grandchildren to place in their garden bed.

πŸ™ŒπŸ½ A little while later, our Aunties practiced singing some songs while Aunty Rhonda played her ukulele, which sounded deadly. This time, even Aunty Ruth was singing along!

It’s great to see everyone enjoying themselves, sharing plenty of stories and laughter. 😊

🐣 What an egg-cellent Easter celebration at Kambu Health Ipswich Children and Family Centre (CFC)! 🐰🌼

To wrap up the term of playgroups, CFC hosted a joyful Easter party for our families. The day was filled with fun games, creative crafts, and engaging activities, including oat sensory play, Easter egg picking with tweezers, basket making, and plenty of outdoor play.

After morning tea, we invited the jarjums inside to meet a very special visitorβ€”a baby Easter bunny! The jarjums loved feeling her soft fur and giving her lots of gentle pats. Through the window, they then spotted our Kambu Koala hopping around and dropping Easter eggs outside. Buckets in hand, our jarjums hurried out to collect the eggs and return them to the Kambu Koala.🧺🐨πŸ₯š

Thank you to all the families who joined CFC throughout the term and participated in our playgroups. We wish every-bunny a very Happy Easter! πŸ’›

CFC will be running some fun April School Holiday programsβ€”please contact CFC on (07) 3810 3010 for more information.

β˜€οΈ Another beautiful Monday morning light workout with our Elders!β˜€οΈ

πŸ’ͺ🏽 We kicked things off with blood pressure checks β€” all given the thumbs up! β€” before moving into our warm-up routine.

Our wonderful Exercise Physiologist, Daniella, led a gentle and enjoyable session.

✨ This session included:
🦢🏽 Heel-to-toe balance work
🎯 Hand-eye coordination β€” a friendly game of ring toss (Quoits!)

🍽️ Lunch was crackers with silverside, cheese and tomato, followed by a gorgeous fruit spread β€” watermelon, banana, strawberries, rockmelon, grapes and yoghurt. Yum! πŸ‰πŸŒπŸ“

🌟 Thank you to Aunty Kathy for helping prepare today's lunch.
🌟 And an extra special thank-you to Dr. Lindsay for dropping in to visit our Elders and supporting their health and wellbeing.
