Born and bred in his beloved County Cork, Ireland, Dr David travelled to Australia for “a year or two” back in 2010. An unexpected love of the Victorian coastal landscape and its way of life means that 11 years on, he is happily staying put. David moved to Barwon Heads from Geelong in 2020 and opened the clinic with Dr Jessica Russell in 2021.

David views healthcare through a holistic lens and has found his calling as a family GP. He is passionate about providing a high level of care for his patients, ensuring he takes the time to listen to their concerns and needs. When not at work he likes to spend time with his young family or you might catch him out in the surf or on the golf links.
