General Practice

Dr Lourelei Sabio formerly studied medicine in her homeland, the Phillipines; thought she would move to the United States to continue her medical career but after visiting Australia, decided to stay and joined the Medical Clinic Millicent in August 2014. Doctor is a title she wears with pride and one her mother wanted so badly that when she realised medical training was financially prohibitive as a young girl, she decided on Entomology, which still earned her the title of doctor. “My mother came to Brisbane to do her Masters in Entomology when I was a school student, so I did my High Schooling in Brisbane and knew I liked Australia. My father was an Agriculturalist but both of my parents are now retired and they have visited me in Australia several times.,” she said. Arriving in Australia in 2008, she married in 2009. Her husband is from the United States and works in Security in Adelaide. Lourelei came to Millicent as a GP with Southern GP Training and Millicent being her first placement. She has worked in Port Lincoln in Aboriginal Health, as a Locum in Yatala Prison and several weeks at James Nash House, a secure psychiatric facility at Oakden in Adelaide. She said she was never afaraid to work on the prison as security is a priority and the inmates were mostly grateful to have a doctor visit. Her experience in Australia includes the Emergency Department at Lyall McEwin and Modbury Hospitals, 12 month Physican training at Lyall McEwin in 2012 and 12 month Locum duties in 2013. She has a special interest in Internal Medicine. She has varied interests including acting in stage plays in high school, and played tennis and softball at National Competition level in the Phillipines. Dr Sabio finished her training at Millicent and decided to stay on permanently. “I love the lifestyle here,” she said.
