Dr Luke Harvey is excited to finally work in the place he’s called home for many years. He arrived in the northern Illawarra as a teenager, emigrating from Scotland with his family. He lived in the area through most of his studies and returned in 2022 with his wife and two children after living and working for a few years in Sydney.

Luke undertook medical school at Western Sydney University before completing hospital training in western Sydney. He went on to complete his general practice training, qualifying as a specialist GP in 2019. He is currently undertaking further training in dermoscopy and skin cancer medicine. He is also an accredited supervisor for GP trainees through the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners.

Luke passionately believes that general practitioners are integral to good patient health. He enjoys being the ‘first port of call’ for any issue a patient may be having and will work with his patients to figure out the best management plan. He prides himself on being thorough but also efficient.

Luke strives to be accessible to the entire community. He is happy to see patients of all ages and backgrounds, and practises in a non-judgmental manner. He welcomes members of the LGBTQI community and is keen to engage Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients to improve health outcomes to Close the Gap.

Luke is available for face-to-face or telehealth consults (phone or video). He believes that telehealth, while not always the best fit, can be extremely useful. He endeavours to make the experience as smooth as possible with paperless solutions for prescriptions, referrals etc.

Away from work, Luke enjoys spending time with his young family, watching soccer (for his sins, he follows Partick Thistle FC from afar), cooking and performing questionable cover versions of The Smiths on his guitar.
