Dr Richard Patterson

MBBS, FRACGP, FARGP

Dr Patterson began General Practice as a Registrar at Creswick and Clunes Medical Centres in 2003, having graduated from Flinders University in 1998. He is an example of how communities having registrar GPs can lead to permanent GPs.

Dr Patterson is now a Fellow of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners and has a Fellowship in Advanced Rural General Practice.

He is busy with three energetic boys and has an intense tomato growing competition each year with his family; he would welcome any secrets on how to win this. He looks forward to being a part of the CROCS Murray to Moyne team each year.
