Dr. Richard Blanch

Works on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.

I trained in Sydney then coastal and rural NSW before moving to Melbourne with my wife Emma in the late 90’s and passed my final GP exams soon after. We have 2 boys and numerous pets. I love general practice and I deeply appreciate my colleagues and all who work at Clifton Hill Medical Group. I am lucky to be interested in many things especially foundational disciplines like biology and clinical physiology. My medical interests include chronic disease management especially hypertension, kidney and cardiac disease and diabetes. I am also interested in complex functional disorders like chronic pain, migraine, irritable bowel syndrome, fatigue, mental health problems and functional neurological disorders. My preferred modality is lifestyle medicine. I enjoy working with those who are growing and learning as well as those who are older and wiser than myself.
