Female and Male Fertility Specialist Sydney
Taking the time to truly listen during consultations allows me to provide the support my patients need. Providing clear and helpful information is a priority, empowering couples to make informed decisions about their fertility treatment.
After obtaining my medical degree from the University of Newcastle, I was awarded the Faculty of Medicine Medal, recognising academic excellence throughout the B. Medicine program. I then went on to complete a Master of Medicine in Reproductive Health and Human Genetics at the University of Sydney.
My training in Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Sydney’s Royal Prince Alfred Hospital led to becoming a Fellow of the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists. I am also a certified sub-specialist in reproductive endocrinology and infertility (CREI) after an additional three years of advanced training.
Offering comprehensive, evidence-based fertility treatments for both women and men is at the heart of my practice. I bring expertise as a laparoscopic surgeon, specialising in complex procedures such as endometriosis and fibroid surgery.
My special interests include the investigation and management of recurrent pregnancy loss, recurrent implantation failure, and pre-implantation genetic testing. I am also experienced in providing fertility preservation options for individuals preparing for chemotherapy, ensuring personalised care during challenging times.
As a Sydney-based fertility specialist, I support individuals and couples with navigating evidence-based fertility treatments and preservation options to give them the best possible chance of achieving their family goals.

Any individual regardless of relationship status, gender, or sexual orientation who wishes to achieve a pregnancy or take steps to preserve their fertility has the right to a fertility assessment and treatment.
Those treatments that hopefully result in a successful pregnancy (e.g. ovulation tracking, ovulation induction (OI), intrauterine insemination (IUI), and in vitro fertilisation (IVF) will typically take 1-month.
Egg freezing cycles typically will take 2-weeks.
Cycles that require chromosome/ genetic testing of embryos and then their subsequent transfer will take approximately 2-months.
Depends on a number of factors such as:

Please obtain any summaries from any prior fertility cycles. Especially the MONITORING and EMBRYOLOGY pages.
Consider what you would like to achieve from the first consultation and write down any questions you have.
PGT = pre-implantation genetic testing of embryos.
Embryos have 5-10 cells removed at the day 5 - 6 stage (Blastocyst).
The genetic material within these cells is amplified (copied multiple times). This enables the chromosome and genetic structure of the embryo to be assessed.
Understanding the emotional journey couples endure when they have difficulty conceiving or recurrent pregnancy loss is essential to my approach.
