Biography

Dr Elisabeth Rippy is a breast surgeon treating both benign and malignant breast conditions. With over 10 years’ experience, she aims to make the journey through diagnosis and treatment as smooth and painless as possible, employing the most up-to-date techniques to minimise the psychological and cosmetic impacts of surgery.

Dr Rippy works with a multidisciplinary team including breast care nurses, psychologists, physiotherapists and dieticians, providing all her patients rounded care that helps them live well after surgery. Where possible, she will offer reconstruction immediately following surgery.

After graduating with a medical degree from Charing Cross and Westminster Medical School in 1995, Elisabeth went on to complete her specialist surgical training to become a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons in 2001. She then pursued additional advanced oncoplastic training in Nottingham before moving to Australia and becoming a Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons in 2012.

Better and fairer care. Always.

In a rapidly transforming world, St Vincent's has created a refreshed vision and strategy to help shape Australia's health and aged care future.
