Dr Ian
​
Practice Owner | GP
MBBS FRACGP
(he/him)
I want to see people empowered in their health.
​
I want to be a point of difference in a system that doesn't show up for everyone equally. I'm listening, I'm learning and I'm here to support people achieve 'their' best health.
​
When I'm not at the surgery you'll find me growing veggies with my partner & kiddo, hitting up the best vegan food Perth has to offer, and/or sticking a random handstand :)

Dr Carmen
GP
MBBS FRACGP
(she/her)
One of the great things about being a GP to me, is the privilege to support people through so many different aspects of their health. I really love preventative care -- there's so many lifestyle factors that intersect with medicine and I love empowering people to find the combination that has them living their best life. I also love helping people navigate tricky chronic conditions, because having good medical support can really make a difference.
​
Outside of GP, I'm very active in community theatre and costume design and I also love to do ballet.
Dr Mel
GP
MBBS FRACGP
(she/her)
I became a GP because I love the diversity of it all --- from preventative care, to helping manage chronic conditions, paediatrics to reproductive health--- it feels like wearing many hats but really it's just one, patient-centred healthcare.
​
I love the collaboration, bringing different knowledge together, to find health pathways that fit my patients best, and getting to make a real difference to their lives.
​
My other passions, outside of medicine, are gardening, bouldering and hitting up one of the many stunning trails Perth has to offer
Dr Ed &
Dr Shane
Recently Retired | GP
​
A massive congratulations to both Ed and Shane on their retirements!
The last few years have been a wonderful initiation period for Ian taking on Foothills, and we're so very grateful to Ed for postponing his retirement, and to Shane for also returning to the clinic during that handover and initial practice period. Because of them, we were able to keep Foothills operating after 2020, and keep providing our wonderful community!
Both chose to see out their consulting till the end of 2022, and are now basking in what is hopefully a relaxing and well-earned retirement from 2023 and beyond.
We know they will be greatly missed by their patients and our staff alike!
