Dr Philip Hall

After twenty five years in private specialist practice in Ballarat, Victoria, Dr Philip Hall and his wife Lesley have recently escaped their two  adult children and decided to set up home in sunny Brisbane.    While Philip is practising “State of the Art”  fertility medicine, he has used his spare time exploring his creative skills by undertaking a Bachelor of Fine Art at the Queensland College of Art, Griffith University. 

Philip brings a wealth of experience in fertility management and ART(assisted reproductive technology) to the team at Life Fertility Clinic.  His undergraduate and post graduate studies were completed at Monash University under the tutelage of Professor Carl Wood,  Australia’s world leading IVF pioneer.   After completing additional training in the United Kingdom, Philip returned to Australia in 1984 to establish a fertility practice in rural Victoria in association with Monash IVF and Professor Carl Wood.  This practice offered fertility management for patients throughout central and western Victoria for  the next decade.  

Naturally, Philip’s skills as an experienced rural specialist are valued greatly by his peers within the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists.  He has led a number of quality assurance program for RANZCOG) and was a member of College Council until recently.  Philip values continuing professional education and complemented his extensive clinical experience by completing a Masters of Reproductive Medicine (MRM) at the University of NSW. – a post graduate degree in infertility and  reproductive endocrinology. 

As well as interests in reproductive medicine, Philip offers his extensive experience in the treatment of polycystic ovaries, endometriosis and premature menopause.   Philip’s clinical expertise is complemented by his skills as a laparoscopic and hysteroscopic surgeon.  

He is able to offer treatments for the management of pelvic floor including prolapse and incontinence.  Along with these skills he is also experienced in the treatment of abnormal Pap smears. He is highly supportive of complementary medicine in the holistic management of fertility problems. 

Furthermore, Philip was formally the head of the Sexual Counselling Clinic at the Royal Women’s Hospital in Melbourne and is able to offer support with psychosomatic aspects of fertility management in his patients’ quests to achieve their dreams.
