He is married with two children and enjoys good food and fast cars.
Dr Deborah Jenner commenced Bariatric training with Mercy Bariatrics in 2008. She works closely with Dr Cohen on all cases. She is enjoying recommencing surgical practice after a pause for 5 years to start her family.
Dr Sarah Kurian is a specialist Anaesthetist with an interest in Bariatric patients. Nicknamed “ The Meerkat” because of her habit of popping her head up over the drapes to see what the surgeons are up to. Outside of work she can be found paddling her surf ski on the Swan river with two dogs in tow trying to keep up. If you’re not completely entranced by Sarah, then you’re probably not breathing!
Dr David Borshoff is a consultant anaesthetist with a specialty interest in Cardiac anaesthesia ( he is on the heart transplant team at RPH ) and bariatric anaesthesia. He has an amazing knack for getting epidurals in to even the hardest patients back.
Graeme is New Zealand Born and completed his Anaesthetic training in Australia. He mainly works with
Gastric Banding patients on Thursday afternoon. He has a quiet calming manner which patients find quite soporific. Watch out, you will be asleep before the first drugs hit you! 
Dr Neil Hewett has been assisting Dr Cohen in theatre for the last four years. He has an almost telepathic ability to predict the next surgical move!
