He trained in general Paediatrics and Neonatology at Monash Medical Centre and the Royal Children’s Hospital during the 1980’s and did further post-graduate training at the Royal Children’s Hospital in Child Psychiatry for two years and this became one of his particular areas of interest.

For the first 20 years of his practice, he did general Neonatology at most of the inner city and South Eastern Maternity Hospitals and also on-call work for Cabrini Hospital and Sandringham Hospital.

He no longer does Emergency after-hours Paediatrics but continues to consult in General Paediatrics at all ages.

His particular areas of interest include ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder and associated Developmental and Behavioural problems, and participates in Multi-Disciplinary assessments of children and adolescents with these issues.
