Dr. Chua is a dedicated and compassionate Specialist General Practitioner with a diverse medical background. She began her career in healthcare after earning a Bachelor of Science in Physiotherapy from Curtin University in 2001. Her time as a Physiotherapist at Singapore’s National University Hospital sparked her desire to pursue medicine, leading her to move to Sydney, where she graduated with Honours in Medicine and Surgery from the University of Sydney in 2007.

Dr. Chua's medical career in hospitals spans over a decade, during which she worked as a Junior Medical Officer in various NSW health districts, including Liverpool, Nepean, Ryde, Hornsby, and Wollongong, gaining experience across specialties such as Orthopaedics, General Surgery, General Medicine, Emergency Medicine, Anaesthetics, and Intensive Care.

A pivotal chapter of her career began in 2016 when she joined Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders) in the Middle East, providing medical care in conflict zones until 2018. Inspired by this transformative experience, Dr. Chua pursued specialist training as a Rural Generalist and was awarded Fellowship from the Australian College of Rural and Remote Medicine (FACRRM) in 2022. She is now a fully qualified Rural Generalist, able to work across Australia, including in austere and remote environments.

In 2022, Dr. Chua returned to Médecins Sans Frontières to work in Poland and Ukraine, where she played a key role in establishing primary health and mental health programs for displaced persons in Vinnytsia. That same year, she worked with the Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS) in Broken Hill, providing healthcare to remote communities.

Committed to providing comprehensive care, Dr. Chua furthered her expertise in 2023 by becoming an AHPRA-endorsed Medical Acupuncturist through the Australian Medical Acupuncture College.

Outside of medicine, Dr. Chua enjoys spending time with her three dogs and pursuing equestrian activities with her horse, which provide her with relaxation and balance in life.

Dr. Chua also serves her local community as a Rural Fire Fighter with the Rural Fire Service (RFS). She is proud to be part of the Milton Brigade.
