Julia welcomes all paediatric referrals of a general nature; from newborns to adolescents still at school. She enjoys managing many different types of medical and developmental or behavioural disorders. Julia also has a warrant to prescribe retinoids for adolescents with severe acne, not responding to routine prescribed topical and systemic medications. Julia completed her medical undergraduate qualifications in 2002 at the prestigious University of Edinburgh in Scotland. She spent the first few years of her Paediatric training in Glasgow, including working at the Royal Hospital for Sick Children at Yorkhill. She made a permanent move to the sunnier climes of Melbourne in 2007 and has never looked back. During her training, Julia has cared for children in such diverse environments as Neonatal Intensive Care; Paediatric Nephrology; Community and Developmental Paediatrics; Infectious Diseases, Paediatric Emergency Medicine and has extensive General Paediatric Inpatient and Outpatient experience. She has worked in a number of Victorian institutions, including the Monash Children’s Hospital and Royal Children’s Hospital. She also spent a year working in Gippsland to gain an insight into Rural Paediatric Medicine. When not supporting patients and their families at Monash Children’s Private Clinic; Julia can be found treating acutely unwell children in the busy Paediatric Emergency Department at Monash Medical Centre. Julia’s early experiences with the NHS in the UK have ingrained in her the importance of ensuring excellent medical care is available to all. As such, she also contributes to patient care in public clinics at Monash Children’s Hospital. One of Julia’s passions is to help train the next generation of doctors. She gives lectures to students at Monash University and provides tutoring and mentoring to students and junior doctors working at Monash Children’s Hospital. When not working, Julia loves to spend time with her two children and their friends; explore the beautiful Australian outdoors and is a hobbyist photographer.
