Doctors Ellie Vidler and Kate Baker have joined the practice, along with Monique Scott who has been working part-time at the centre for almost 12 months.
Doctor Brett Thomson welcomed the newcomers, who he said brought “a wide skill set” to his operation.
Dr Vidler has returned to Milton as a GP registrar after undergoing her 10-week Prevocational General Practice Placements Program at the centre last year.
Originally from Kangaroo Valley, she completed her training at Newcastle University and said she enjoys living in the Ulladulla area.
As well as working at the medical centre, Dr Vidler is working one shift a week in the Milton-Ulladulla Hospital’s emergency department.
Also a Newcastle Uni graduate, Dr Baker has worked at the Ulladulla Medical Clinic for 12 months and is pleased to have secured a registrar position at Milton where she is now completing her third term of Coast City Country general practice training.
Dr Scott has a special interest in women’s health and sexual health and has been working with local families at the practice part-time for 12 months.
The New Zealand trained doctor and her family are enjoying their lifestyle at Mollymook.
She also works in the emergency department at Shoalhaven Hospital.
Dr Thomson said it was “fabulous” to have more young doctors living and working in the local area.
