Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.

Philosophy
I aim to take a holistic view of your health and wellbeing. A consult involves taking a thorough history, a physical examination, and a discussion of diagnosis and next steps, which involves evidence-based investigations (e.g. blood tests), treatments (e.g. lifestyle modifications, medications), and follow-up appointments.
I prefer prevention where possible, and aim to empower you to make informed decisions about your health, and to actively participate in your care.

Hi, I’m Doctor Rochelle.
I am an Academic General Practitioner committed to compassionate, patient-centred care, and innovative primary care research.
I undertook my medical training in metropolitan and regional hospitals in Queensland and Victoria, gaining clinical experience in a number of specialities, prior to recently completing my General Practice training in Melbourne. I enjoy the diversity of General Practice, and have special interests in preventative medicine, women’s and children’s health, and medical education.
I am also undertaking a PhD at the University of Melbourne.
What to expect
Telehealth consults are suitable for issues that are non-urgent or routine, e.g. normal blood test results. Please do not book a telehealth consult for urgent issues, or those that require a physical examination, e.g. skin conditions.
