We are judged by how we treat the most vulnerable members of our society. Each one of us can experience homelessness, addiction and other mental health issues in our lives.

The GPs and other dedicated workers at cohealth made it their mission to make lives better for these very vulnerable people.

Let's call for the Government to save this essential service!

It was good to be part of the GPs @ Parliament event today to highlight the importance of having regular health checks with your GPs. Thanks to all MPs who participated, including the Victorian Health Minister, who understand the critical role GPs play in the health care of Victorians. We need to continue to advocate for greater funding and support from all levels of government towards Primary Care.

Today, I received official confirmation of the completion of my Addiction Medicine Training Program.

I took a moment to celebrate with the one person who has been my unwavering support throughout this journey—my wife, Katharina.

Kate has been my rock over the past few years. Her encouragement, patience, and strength have made this achievement possible. I truly couldn’t have done it without her.

While there are still a few more weeks of administrative processing before AHPRA formally recognises me as an Addiction Medicine Specialist, tonight I’m simply feeling grateful.

Babies 👶 can drown in as little as centimetres of water. When you want to have fun with your little one in the pool, choose ones with lifeguards on duty and never keep them out of your reach!

Personal floatation or safety devices may add a level of safety, but do not replace careful adult supervision!
