Dr James Allen completed his medical degree at Flinders University in his hometown of Adelaide. He has undertaken a wide range of hospital-based terms in both Adelaide and Darwin, gaining extensive experience in general and geriatric medicine. Following his move to NSW, he completed a Master of Medicine through the University of Sydney while working in palliative medicine across the state, covering areas such as Broken Hill, Tamworth, Wollongong, and Western Sydney. While enjoying the diversity presented by all areas of general practice, Jim has developed a particular interest in chronic disease management and preventive health. Outside of medicine, Jim is a keen traveller and enjoys planning his future adventures abroad.
