After graduating from the University of Melbourne, Dr. Elysia Robb trained across several major Melbourne hospitals and completed her Diploma of Obstetrics and Gynaecology (DRANZCOG) in 2017 before moving into General Practice.
A country Victoria girl at heart, Elysia now lives in Melbourne with her partner and young family. She has a special interest in women’s health and antenatal care, and enjoys helping patients manage chronic conditions, navigate sexual and reproductive health concerns, and prioritise their mental wellbeing. Elysia is a strong advocate for preventative health, working collaboratively with her patients to help them feel their best and stay well.
Outside of work, Elysia enjoys salsa dancing, playing guitar, gardening, and singing with one of her local choirs. She also volunteers with the Victorian Medical Women’s Society, supporting women within the medical profession. Elysia is passionate about building meaningful, long-term relationships with her patients and supporting them through all stages of their health journey.
In my previous life, I was a scientist. A handful of my colleagues were medical doctors and
scientists, and I was inspired by the way they thought and what they brought to science – a
practical, applicable and very broad perspective. I like problem solving, and helping people.
In my twenties, doing Honours at Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, I helped my grandfather
when he was very unwell, which had a significant impact on my life in science and decision
to pursue a career medicine.
Women’s health, pregnancy/antenatal health, mental health, skin medicine and procedures,
palliative care and voluntary assisted dying. Holistic medical care. Chronic disease and
preventative health – diet and lifestyle medicine. I practise Focussed Psychological
Strategies, which enables me to provide more mental health support in GP, than usual
general practise.
Helping my patients and problem solving with them. It’s a privilege to be in a position where
people ask for support, and share very intimate details of their life.
It’s great to be able to serve my local NWM community.
I have made the difficult decision to not consult my friends and family, and I would like to
explain that this is not because I don’t want to help you all. Rather, it is easier for me to
maintain a professional boundary when there is no personal connection to my patients. In
order to do my job properly, I ask a lot of questions – at times this may make you feel
awkward, and at other times, this may make me feel awkward!
I spend time with my kids and partner. I make music, I sing and play guitar. My daughter and
I play music together, and my son and I are in a band together. I dance Latin dance on
occasion. I garden and read.
This is a hard one. I love musicals, so one quote that comes to mind is from a song in
Hamilton, “and I thought I was so smart”. On the contrary, I also like the quote “put the bunny
back in the box,” you’ll have to look that one up and interpret as you will.
