After 25 years, I have made the very difficult decision to step down from my role as Practice Manager. My last day at the practice will be on Thursday, 4 June 2026.

It’s hard to put into words what the Practice has and does mean to me. For more than two decades, it hasn’t just been a workplace — it has been my second home, my second family, my community, and a huge part of who I am. Having joined the practice as a young and inquisitive 16 year old, I’ve grown up here in so many ways, the challenges, the achievements, the lessons, the friendships and the everyday moments that have shaped my life.

It has been a privilege to work alongside all of my amazing colleagues, both past and present, we have so many memories, have had so many laughs and I have been blessed with unwavering support from all of them.

A special thank you to Dr Rajiv Ahuja for providing a stable, inclusive and supportive workplace and for entrusting me to manage your practice and for allowing me to treat the practice as my own.

To the patients and theirs families who have trusted me over the years — thank you. So many of you have become my lifelong friends. Our talks over the years about our lives and families, children born and starting school to celebrating weddings, retirement and all of life’s successes. Thank you for including me in your family journey, it’s has been an honour to have been entrusted in your lives.

I am so proud of what we’ve built together and the care we’ve been able to provide as a team. Leaving is not easy, but I know it’s the right time for me to turn the page and begin a new chapter, whatever that may be.

Thank you for the memories, the friendships, and the unwavering support I’ve the past 25 years.

✅ Maitland Medicare Urgent Care Clinic 🥳

Urgent care is when you need medical attention for an illness or injury that can be managed without a trip to the emergency department, but cannot wait for a regular appointment with a general practitioner (GP).

Medicare UCCs provide acute episodic care and treatment that does not require a hospital admission. This may include:
- minor infections
- minor fractures, sprains, sports injuries and neck and back pain
- urinary tract infections (UTIs)
- sexually transmitted infections (STIs)
- minor cuts
- insect bites and rashes
- minor eye and ear problems
- respiratory illness
- gastroenteritis
- mild burns.

Please take your Medicare card or number with you.
