Pharmacologist / Psychopharmacologist
B Pharm, FSHP, BCPP (USA), CGP

My major area of expertise is in psychopharmacology - I can provide evidence and opinion about the most appropriate forms of drug therapy for a particular psychiatric illness, the possible adverse effects and drug interactions of psychoactive drugs, the behavioural effects of prescribed and illicit drugs, the effects of drugs on the ability to drive, and other areas. I have previously provided expert witness in relation to medical negligence matters, criminal prosecutions, road traffic accident cases, and drugs in sport. I am one of only two pharmacists in Australia who hold specialty practice certification in psychiatry from the US Board of Pharmaceutical Specialties. I can also provide expert witness statements for matters relating to general medication issues and pharmacy practice matters.
