Welcome Dr Ben to Emerald Medical Centre 👋

Dr Ben brings a broad and impressive background to general practice. Originally trained in Biomedical Engineering, he has more than a decade of hands-on clinical experience. After completing Basic Physician Training (RACP), Ben spent seven years working in Emergency Medicine (ACEM) across both public and private emergency departments. This means he’s very comfortable managing everything from everyday presentations through to complex, high-acuity cases.

One of Ben’s standout areas of expertise is pain and addiction medicine. He holds a Master’s in Pain Medicine and has a strong, evidence-based approach to supporting patients with chronic pain and dependency—always with a focus on safe, compassionate, and practical care.

Ben also has a strong interest in chronic disease management and geriatric care, working closely with patients to support long-term health outcomes, particularly for older adults.

Areas Ben enjoys working in include:

• Acute & urgent care – drawing on his extensive emergency medicine experience

• Men’s health & mental health – preventative care and holistic wellbeing

• Paediatrics – including developmental and behavioural health

• General medicine – managing complex and multi-condition presentations

Dr Ben is known for his thoughtful, patient-centred approach and his ability to look at the “big picture” when it comes to health. We’re confident our patients will appreciate his calm manner, depth of knowledge, and broad skill set.

Please join us in welcoming Dr Ben to Emerald Medical Centre — we’re thrilled to have him on board!
