Our Doctors

Dr John Arena General Practitioner, Male, MBBS

Dr Esther Mitchelson General Practioner, Female

I graduated from the Australian National University with a Doctor of Medicine and Surgery (MChD) in 2015 and have spent the past 10 years working across Emergency Departments throughout Northern Sydney, caring for both adults and children. I continue to work part-time in Emergency Medicine, which allows me to maintain a broad range of acute care skills alongside my work as a GP.

I enjoy all aspects of general practice and value the opportunity to care for patients through every stage of life. I have a particular interest in women's health and child and adolescent health.  I believe in taking the time to listen, build lasting relationships, and work collaboratively with my patients to achieve the best possible health outcomes.
Outside of medicine, I'm a proud mum to three energetic boys. You'll often find us bushwalking, fishing or making the most of our local parks and beaches. I look forward to welcoming you and your family to the practice and partnering with you on your healthcare journey.
