Overview
Clinical interests in skin cancer, prostate cancer, urological cancers, breast cancer, palliative care, and benign conditions.
Brad completed a Bachelor of Medicine and Surgery (MBBS) at the University of Adelaide before undertaking his radiation oncology training in South Australia. In 2015 he was awarded Fellowship to the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Radiologists (FRANZCR). He currently practices as a consultant radiation oncology specialist with GenesisCare in Buderim, Nambour, Bundaberg and Hervey Bay with outreach clinics in Gympie and Noosa.
Brad is dedicated to offering personalised care through the provision of modern treatment techniques including volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and image guided radiation therapy (IGRT). In recent years Brad has presented at a number of medical conferences on the topics of skin cancer and prostate cancer. He regularly participates in multidisciplinary team meetings and believes in a holistic approach to patient care.
Brad has been involved in clinical teaching and has been awarded the academic title of Senior Lecturer at the University of Queensland School of Medicine. As well as supervising medical student tutorials, he is also a clinical examiner at the University of Queensland. He currently serves on the GenesisCare National Skin Cancer Tumour Reference Group (TRG) and has previously served as the chairman of the Wide Bay Urology MDT.
Brad works across many tumour types, and has clinical interests in the management of skin cancer, prostate cancer, urological cancers, breast cancer, plus benign conditions and palliative care. His current major technical interests are in the use of 3D printed bolus for wide field skin treatments.
