Dr Alexander (Alex) Gershenzon

MBBS, FANZCA

Areas of practice

I regularly anaesthetise for a broad range of surgical procedures, with particular interest in Anaesthesia for Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Ear Nose and Throat, Eye surgery, Weight Loss surgery, Orthopaedic surgery and General surgery.

Professional history

I have studied Medicine at Melbourne University. I have subsequently pursued anaesthetic training, having worked at a number of major Melbourne hospitals including StVincent's, Box Hill, Royal Women's, Royal Children's and The Eye And Ear hospitals.

While the majority of my work is currently in the private sector, I continue working at the Eye And Ear as well as Eastern Health (Box Hill Hospital) as a Visiting Anaesthetist.

I joined Central Anaesthetic Group in 2012.

I believe patient safety and wellbeing is paramount and I actively participate in Continuing Medical Education with the Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists.
