Meet Dr Dallas Smith. Dr Dallas is taking on new patients.

Dr Dallas Smith has relocated to Cairns after working for several years across general practice and hospital positions in Victoria.

He has a background in emergency medicine before transitioning to general practice.

He has previously supervised medical students and GP registrars in clinical placements, and has also served as an examiner for medical students at Monash University.

Dr Smith has an interest in primary care and preventative medicine, in addition to sports medicine and men's health. He is able to perform minor surgical procedures such as skin excisions, abscess drainage and wedge resection of ingrown toenails.

In his spare time he enjoys running, swimming and exploring the wonderful things Cairns has to offer.
