I am a practising clinical pharmacist with specialist qualifications in psychiatry and geriatrics. I have over 18 years of experience in these fields and have authored more than 80 journal publications and book chapters in these areas.

I can provide expert medicolegal opinion in relation to the treatment of a range psychiatric illnesses including depression, schizophrenia and other psychosis, substance abuse and anxiety disorders.

I am also able to provide opinion on the adverse neuropsychiatric effects of drugs (side effects of drugs that may appear like a mental illness).

Areas in which I can provide advice include adverse drug reactions (side effects), drug interactions, drug dosage and administration, medication selection, and interpretation of serum drug levels.

Having a broad range of experience I can provide advice from an Australian and also an international perspective.

I have access to a wide range of highly specialised drug information resources and other databases with relevance to clinical psychopharmacology.

I have experience in providing expert witness information in the area of psychiatry and also with respect to the effects of medications and other compounds upon fitness to drive. I can provide opinion in person or by mail/email.
