Having been in practice for over 30 years Peter is part of a small group of Victoria's first Australian born and trained Chinese medicine practitioners and began practicing in the western suburbs where he continues to work. In addition to being a practitioner he has also been instrumental in training would-be acupuncturists since the mid-1980's. In the early 1990's university training in acupuncture was established in Melbourne, which was a first for Australia, and Peter was fortunate to be one of a small group of educators that began lecturing in Chinese medicine at Victoria University where he worked for some fifteen years. During that time Peter completed his Masters by thesis followed with his Doctorate in Chinese medicine.
Now part of Three Lanterns, Peter is devoting more of his time to clinical practice, primarily as a generalist practitioner, but still retains an interest in lecturing, consulting and mentoring. Peter is currently a member of the editorial board of the Australian Journal of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, Australia's first peer reviewed Chinese medicine journal. Peter also runs regular workshops in MET and Muscle Meridian Technique for acupuncturists and other allied health professionals.
