Melissa started medicine with the intention of being a GP - primarily because of the ability to form continuing relationships and really getting to know patients and families, which is such a rewarding aspect of being a family doctor. She enjoys the diversity and challenge of never knowing whats going to come through the door next, and being able to equally look after newborns and the elderly.
Melissa is a current GP Registrar Supervisor with the RACGP
