The thing Kevin finds most enjoyable about his work is the satisfaction that comes from being able to help his patients to improve the quality of their lives.

In his spare time Kevin is a cricket ‘tragic’ and still plays regularly. If Kevin were not a doctor, he would be an architect as he has an abiding interest in design and functionality.

Kevin served as the President of the Australian & New Zealand Association of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons from 1991 -1993.

He has published a number of papers in the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery literature.
