ZedThree Specialist Centre (ZedThree) is proud to welcome the highly experienced General Paediatrician, Dr Ibrahim Youssef to the team.
ZedThree is a private practice providing Psychiatry, Psychology, and Paediatric services since 2017. In January this year, ZedThree relocated to larger rooms in Bruce in order to provide additional much-needed services to Canberra and the surrounding community.
With that expansion brought Dr Youssef, who has relocated from Victoria. ZedThree is delighted to welcome his lovely manner and caring nature to the team.
Dr Youssef is a General Paediatrician with over two decades’ experience. He moved to Australia in 2019 and became a Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Physicians. In addition to his work as a Paediatrician, he also worked as an Adjunct Lecturer at Monash Rural Health in Gippsland.
Working in a regional hospital, he got his first taste of practising in a tight-knit Australian community. Settling in the ACT was then a natural fit for Dr Youssef, his wife and their two young children. “Canberra is the perfect place to raise a family, in between a small city and a large town. “Here in Canberra, we all live as a big family – everyone knows everyone.
The ZedThree family was also a great fit for Dr Youssef. “The team here, from administration to Clinicians, are so cooperative,” he says. “Being a multidisciplinary practice, we share our thoughts and collaborate across specialties.”
Dr Youssef enthusiastically enjoys practising in the ACT as, “compared to other parts of the country, I feel that in Canberra we have a lot of resources.” “There’s a high demand towards allied health services but we are lucky have a lot more options.”
Growing up, Dr Youssef was inspired to become a doctor at a very young age.
“I spent most of my days with my grandmother, who was very sick,” says Dr Youssef.
“As a young one, I felt so reassured when the doctor arrived during emergencies. “This ability to help and assure others and to provide a safe environment became very important to me.”
Working in Paediatrics, he takes every opportunity to understand and relieve his young patients’ difficulties head on.
For families searching for a warm and caring General Paediatrician, Dr Youssef sees all kinds of presentations ranging from Medical to Developmental (up to 15 years). He is fluent in both English and Arabic.
ZedThree Specialist Centre is conveniently located in the Bruce Hospital precinct next door to a wide range of medical services. Dr Youssef is available now for appointments from Monday to Friday with minimal wait time.
