Dr Gabrielle McMullin

Dr McMullin is a Director of the South Sydney Vascular Centre at Miranda where she consults each business day. Dr McMullin is a Vascular Surgeon with an interest in endovascular surgery and has privileges at The Sutherland Hospital, Caringbah and St George Public and St George Private Hospitals, Kogarah.

Since she was appointed as a consultant vascular surgeon there has been a revolution in vascular surgery with the introduction of minimally invasive endovascular techniques.  The treatment of arterial disease by means of balloon angioplasty and stenting is by now the preferred method of treatment and used instead of large open operations whenever possible.

Dr McMullin is accredited to undertake all endovascular techniques and manages all aspects of  vascular disease but she maintains a strong interest in chronic leg ulcers.  “I am fascinated by the fact that Hippocrates was dealing with venous leg ulcers in 500BC and that today we are not only dealing with the same condition but using the same technology to treat it!  Surely this could not be said of any other condition in medicine.”  She runs a weekly leg ulcer clinic with the South Sydney Vascular Centre with a focus on investigation in order to implement the correct treatment.
