Dr Peter Zammit is an experienced General Practitioner who has spent much of his career caring for individuals and families across Melbourne’s western suburbs. He enjoys the breadth of family medicine and has a particular interest in supporting patients with complex and ongoing healthcare needs through continuity of care and a compassionate, patient-centred approach.

Dr Zammit has undertaken further training in addiction medicine and mental health. He has a particular interest in supporting people experiencing alcohol and other drug dependence, as well as patients managing mental health concerns. He understands that complex health needs often require time, trust and coordinated care, and takes a respectful, non-judgemental and evidence-based approach. His broader general practice care includes preventative health, health assessments and chronic disease management across all life stages.

Education is also an important part of Dr Zammit’s work. He is a GP Supervisor, supporting doctors undertaking General Practice training, and contributes to the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners as a GP Educator. He has also worked in rural and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and values equitable access to healthcare. Outside medicine, he enjoys spending time with his family and keeping active by playing hockey.
