I am considered a competent and thorough GP by my colleagues. I have

Skills
I am able to manage fractures which do not require extensive reduction. I
am able to perform reductions under sedation, but usually do so only in
the setting of vascular compromise, due to lack of appropriate facilities. I
am comfortable with using an ultrasound scanner.
Like most GPs, I am skilled in handling children - and their parents.
I practise shared antenatal care but my obstetric experience post
graduation is confined to emergency deliveries as a hospital VMO on call
in remote areas.
I read ultrasounds, X-Rays, CT, MRI and nuclear scans of most regions.
I have extensive experience in minor surgery, dating from 1985. I am able
to repair most lacerations that present to small rural hospitals, and I
make use of flap methodology to close larger defects, normally in the
setting of skin cancer removal.
I have considerable experience in resuscitation of adults, children and
neonates in remote settings.
I have adequate experience as a sedationist as a result of managing
traumatic deformities prior to evacuation, as well as because of my long-
standing policy to only perform procedures on minors with adequate
analgesia and sedation.
At remote locations I carry a set of equipment and medications similar to
those carried by advanced paramedics. This allows me to duplicate their
services if these are not available in a timely manner. I also have an
advanced set of portable equipment for dealing with conditions such eye
injuries.
I have good working knowledge of evacuation procedures and
methodology and consider it a part of my job, whilst in remote locations,
to assist ambulance crews wherever such assistance is required and to
accompany the patient to destination if so required.
I have a calm, humorous demeanour and have no difficulty in marshalling
my concentration under pressure.
It is my long-standing habit to react to a crisis situation by becoming very
Page 3 of 11

calm rather than mirror the reaction of others. This characteristic has
proved popular with the staff of small hospitals in remote areas, with
whom I always enjoy excellent relations.
Special interests
• Critical care in isolated settings
• Portable ultrasonography
• Minor reconstructive surgery (with emphasis on removal of skin
lesions with optimal cosmetic results)
• Cardiovascular medicine with particular emphasis on insulin
resistance.
• I also have an interest and expertise in medical IT.
Since 1989 I have made use of clinical photography to monitor skin
lesions and to distinguish benign lesions from malignant where their
appearance allows. I had maintained this skill since. At present I use a
dermatoscope of my own design, which allows seamless employment of
digital photography that is linked to the electronic patient record.

Since 1996 I had been a member of an Internet-based group of mainly
Page 4 of 11

rural GPs in Australia with whom I am in daily contact for peer support
and review. I am also a part of the peer group based in Rangiora, New
Zealand.
I am a founding member of ACRRM and was its inaugural IT Chair.
Equipment carried in New Zealand:
In June 2005 I completed a course in emergency ultrasonography, after
which I purchased a Sonosite 180 Plus machine, ideally suited for work in
remote areas. I use this unit during regular consulting and for emergency
work.

Other Postgraduate Qualifications and Experience
I have a life-long interest in computer science. In 1998 I completed, with
distinction, a respected graduate IT diploma at University of Canberra.
On the strength of this qualification I have accepted consultancies in
medical IT from various organizations from 1998, including one teaching
hospital and the Health Insurance Commission of Australia. In the years
prior to my departure from Australia my IT work has mainly focussed on
IT education for GP's and data security. A list of IT projects in which I
have been involved is available on request.
I was also a regular contributor of commissioned articles to Medical
Observer, Australian Doctor, UK Doctor as well as occasional contributor
to NZ Doctor magazines, from 1995.
I was a board member of the ACT Division of General Practitioners from
2001 to 2002 and played a significant role in its restructure towards its
modern form, that of a leading provider of GP support services in ACT.

Relevant Biography
Born in Moscow.
Emigrated to Melbourne, Australia.
HSC (Special Distinction, Victoria).
I enrolled in a medical course at University of Melbourne in 1980 and received an MB BS with honours in
1986. In 1983 also completed a Bachelor of Medical Science degree in neurophysiology at the same
University (awarded in 1986 – see Publications for further detail).
In 1985 I completed a six month rotation as a trainee intern at Timaru Hospital, New Zealand, most
of which was spent in a busy general surgical unit, as part of a student elective.
Having graduated, I worked for three months in A+E at Alfred Hospital, Melbourne, then further three
at Latrobe Valley Hospital where I was on rotation as a surgical intern with additional duties at A+E.
My other hospital rotations were vascular surgery, general medicine, neurosurgical intensive care,
cardiothoracic surgery and general intensive care, the latter three at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital,
Sydney.
After performing weekend work to finalize student debts, I discovered that I am most suited for work
as a General Practitioner. At the end of 1988 I purchased a solo practice in Prahran, an inner-city
suburb of Melbourne. This was a small practice serving a predominantly geriatric population,
although I also pioneered a photograph-based skin cancer surveillance programme, which led to
upskilling in minor cosmetic surgery.
In addition, my practice was allied to a drug rehabilitation programme, which sent all of its clients for
medical evaluation and treatment of any disorders revealed after detoxification.
In January 1994 I relocated for family reasons to Lyneham, a middle class suburb of Canberra, where
I purchased a part of a group practice of four GP's in 1995. My practice at Lyneham mainly serves a
younger population, with few patients being over sixty years of age.
In addition to my clinical work as a principal of that practice, I served as its financial controller and IT
manager, which involves detailed maintenance of the practice network, website, software and
hardware.
Graduate Diploma in Computer Science completed at Canberra University.
In January 2003 I made a decision to relocate to be near my son near Christchurch, New Zealand,
where he was taken to live by his mother against my will. The relocation was carried out in July 2003.
I commenced work as a GP in the Christchurch area in July 2003. In February 2004 I made a decision
to work as a rural locum. Since then I had worked in a number of locations throughout the South
Island, initially through Rural GP Network of New Zealand, then through word of mouth.
In March 2005 I commenced rural and remote locum work in Australia.
In June 2006 I commenced part-time work at a family practice in Rangiora, NZ, involving sessional
work and occasional emergency responses, continuing to travel to Australia for work in remote
locations.
In addition to above, I worked part-time as medical officer at Mt Hutt Ski Resort during the ski
season.
Continuing at Rangiora, I accepted a hospital assignment (Gore Hospital), a position equivalent to a
MOSS or senior registrar. This is a very busy job with a major emergency component via the ED.
Accepted a locum VMO role in ED at Maclean Hospital, NSW
Concentrated on meeting the needs of the local community in the aftermath of the Christchurch
earthquakes.
Ceased practising in New Zealand due to forthcoming registration changes, which discriminated
against foreign graduates without fellowship of RNZCGP. Locum work confined to Australia.
After examining the Inpractice system, I decided to resume work in New Zealand as well as Australia,
performing such presently.
