About

Nigel graduated in Medicine in 1979 from Qld University. He spent four years working at Redcliffe Hospital with three of those years as a Registrar when he obtained his Diploma of Obstetrics and Gynaecology. Nigel then started his own Private Practice and opened the Shailer Park Medical Centre as the Principal Doctor.

He developed an interest in Skin Cancer detection and obtained his Masters of Skin Cancer Medicine followed by Laser Certification and a Diploma of Cosmetic Medicine. The skin cancer work became so busy that Nigel decided to start a dedicated Skin Clinic and Revive was born in 2009. Since then he has added many other amazing tools to his belt including Vasectomies, Threads and Ear Lobe repairs amongst others.

Nigel is an incredibly caring, interesting person who loves collecting – examples of which can be seen around Revive’s eclectic spaces.
