Since attaining her GP Fellowship in 2005, she has completed further training in the management of HIV and Hepatitis C and is registered to prescribe opiate substitution treatment.

 

She has also received training in the management of mental health issues through the Black Dog Institute and the NSW Institute of Psychiatry.
