Services Offered
Dr Anne is a General Practitioner with a number of areas of special interest.
Skin Cancer
Dr Anne provides both 'spotcheck' services and full body skin checks at her main practice location in Briar Hill.
​
​​Most skin cancers are managed by Dr Anne herself in-house, occasionally in conjunction with a practice colleague. In a small number of cases, external referral to trusted dermatology or plastic surgery colleagues will be advised so as to ensure optimal outcomes. External referral is always an option at patient preference.
​
Dr Anne has a strong focus on and expertise in early detection of lesions, which can open up non-surgical treatment options for many patients. Dr Anne is skilled at both surgical and nonsurgical management of skin cancers.
Shared Maternity Care
With accreditation at a number of Melbourne hospitals, Dr Anne offers Shared Antenatal care at her Briar Hill location and enjoys being able to provide warm and compassionate care to women at such a joyous time in their lives.
​
Shared Care allows for a unique antenatal experience where the majority of visits can be done in a familiar environment for the mothers, with the caring Dr Anne guiding them through all the options they have available to them at this time. The Shared Maternity Care service at Briar Hill is provided in collaboration with Dr Mostafa Khalafalla ('Dr Moz'). We are delighted to be able to offer bedside ultrasound at antenatal visits after 10 weeks gestation, allowing you a precious glimpse of bubs whilst having your essential antenatal well-being checks performed.
Contraceptive Options
An experienced procedural General Practitioner, Dr Anne is able to provide balanced information about all contraceptive options including non-surgical long acting contraceptives (LARCs). She is a trained inserter of the Implanon implant as well as all 3 of the intrauterine devices available to Australian women (Mirena, Kyleena, Copper IUD).
General Practice
Whilst having defined areas of special interest and expertise, Dr Anne remains at heart a general practitioner, delighting in the endless variety that is general practice. Patients of any age, with any manner of health issue, are assured an attentive ear, a careful eye and an abundantly respectful approach. Ongoing care of individuals or families and especially of their changing needs over time provides particular satisfaction. Nothing pleases her more than to come to be regarded as 'your' doctor.
