A Fellow of the Royal Australian College of Physicians, he is a national leader in the development of policy regarding the co-ordinated delivery of chronic disease prevention and management services for Indigenous Australians. He has considerable expertise as a clinical researcher, epidemiologist and community-based researcher.
