Dr Katherine Rybak

Doctor

Katherine’s upbringing took place in Hobart. In 2010, she earned her Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery from the University of Tasmania. Following this, she undertook her residency at Geelong Hospital and Western Health before settling in Melbourne. Having immersed herself in the Inner West community, Katherine considers herself fortunate to have cared for its members for several years and to now consider herself a local. Katherine is proud to be affiliated with the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners.

In her practice of General Medicine, Katherine finds fulfillment in the diversity of cases and interactions with people. She harbours a particular interest in paediatric care but also finds fulfillment in various other areas, including Adolescent Health, Orthopaedics/Sports Medicine, Women’s Health, Mental Health, Preventative Health, and Travel Medicine. Katherine is accredited for Implanon insertion and proficient in conducting skin checks, minor procedures, and biopsies.

Unfortunately, Dr Katherine Rybak is not accepting new patients at this time. Once she resumes seeing new patients, we will be sure to let our patients know.

With her passion for early childhood development, she offers expert guidance and support to parents through the critical stages of infancy, ensuring both health and developmental milestones are met. She is adept at managing common childhood illnesses, chronic conditions, and developmental concerns, creating a nurturing environment where young patients feel comfortable and cared for. Her holistic approach encompasses not only medical treatment but also preventive care, including vaccinations and health education, aimed at fostering the long-term well-being of her patients. She remains committed to offering the highest standard of care to her young patients, ensuring their healthy transition into adulthood, by continuously updating her knowledge on the latest paediatric advancements.

Beyond her professional endeavours, Katherine devotes herself to her toddler. Despite the demands of parenthood, she still manages to pursue her passions for baking, gardening, and attending theatrical performances.
