Book an Appointment
Bio

After many years of country General Practice, the last 6 of which were spent solely in pain management, Dr Horwood is now working part time at Greater Knox Family Practice.

“My interest remains in all aspects of pain management with a particular emphasis on what measures might help each person enjoy the best quality of life possible in ways that are safe. I’d summarise this as living well despite pain rather than eliminating pain. I work closely with Allied Health practitioners and others who can contribute their skills to achieve your quality-of-life goal

Bio

I graduated from Monash University in 2021 and after completing my hospital years at Eastern Health I have learnt that my passion lies within General Practice. I strive to make all patients feel comfortable and listened to, addressing all aspects of your health including mental, emotional and physical. I am particularly interested in women’s health addressing concerns from adolescence to post menopausal. Outside of work I enjoy going on hikes, baking and painting!

Bio
I completed my Doctor of Medicine at Deakin University in 2023 and trained with Monash Health, where I discovered my love for General Practice. I enjoy caring for people across all stages of life and value having the time to truly listen, understand what matters to you, and support your health within the community. I am particularly interested in child health, mental health, and dermatology, and aim to provide care that feels thoughtful, practical, and personal.
