My journey to becoming a GP in New Zealand began in Israel in 2007 where I graduated from Ben Gurion University and went onto working in various hospitals throughout the country. I then worked as a Family Medicine specialist before immigrating to New Zealand in 2017 with my husband and four daughters. What began as a trip for new life experiences in a different country, became a place to call home as we fell in love with everything Taranaki had to offer.

I have a special interest in palliative care, having worked in hospice services in Israel and here in Taranaki with local community hospice nurses. I am also in the process of completing further studies in palliative medicine through Auckland University.

For the last 6 years, I have practiced as a GP at the Opunake Medical Centre, and I am excited to begin my journey as a primary care physician at Healthspace and expand my practice into preventative and holistic primary care, using both medical and lifestyle approaches.
