Dr Timothy Vandenberg

MBBS. FRACGP

Dr Tim Vandenberg provides comprehensive, high-quality care across all areas of general practice. A Tasmanian local, he graduated from University of Tasmania in 2013 before completing most of his hospital training in Queensland, including working in rural outback communities.

 

Dr Tim values building strong relationships with his patients, taking the time to listen carefully and work collaboratively to find the best approach for their individual health needs. While he treats patients across the full range of general practice, he has particular expertise in chronic disease management, skin cancer care, and travel medicine.
