Dr Esther Jenkins graduated from medicine at the University of Queensland in 2001.
Esther completed her internship in Brisbane then worked overseas in the UK for a few years, combining her love of travel with NHS hospital work.
Upon returning to Australia, Esther was based in Queensland hospitals for 15 years, focusing on medical specialties and geriatric medicine. She was also involved in a management consulting role for several years on a large scale eHealth project for Queensland Health.
During her GP training, Esther loved her work at an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Service and continues to have an interest in this area. She enjoys working with patients of all ages in our clinic and has particularly enjoyed supporting families – from obstetric shared care, paediatrics, adolescent and adult medicine and then through to aged care.
Esther is interested in the challenges and variety of general practice and works part time, balancing family life with her 5 young children, exercise and holidays.
Dr Esther Jenkins operates her own medical services business at Kedron Wavell Medical Centre
