Dr Mark Wood graduated from Cambridge University in 1989 and has worked as a full time GP in the UK for over 30 years, developing enormous experience in the full range of GP specialist skills including chronic disease management, child health, frailty, multi-system disease, men’s health, and minor surgery.

After six years of leading England’s GPs at a national level, he has relocated to WA with his Australian wife, Shelagh, to be closer to her family and to enjoy everything that WA has to offer.

He is a keen, though ageing, sportsman who also enjoys writing, flying (he holds a private pilot’s licence), history, physics, philosophy and travel. He is excited about bringing a lifetime of medical experience to a new setting and is relishing the opportunity to add to the Brecken team.
