General Practitioner | MBBS (UNSW), FRACGP | MMed (Paediatrics) | MPhil (Dermatological Sciences)
Walker Street Doctors is thrilled to welcome Dr Shanji Antony—and her beaming smile—to the team. What really sets her apart isn’t just experience (she has plenty of that). It’s the way she combines calm, high-level clinical skill with a warmth that makes people feel instantly at ease.
If you’re looking for a GP who listens properly, explains clearly, and leaves you feeling like you’ve got a plan (not just a script), you’re going to love seeing Shanji.
She has a deep love of lifelong learning and has completed postgraduate qualifications in two areas that touch almost every family at some point:
- a Master of Medicine (Paediatrics) at the University of Sydney, and
- a Master of Philosophy in Dermatological Sciences at Newcastle University (UK), focused on eczema and skin inflammation.
She is particularly known for her ability to hold the whole story—medical, psychological, and practical—without making it feel overwhelming.
Patients often seek her out for:
Women’s health & life stages
From pre-fertility checks and contraception advice to antenatal and post-partum care, and later menopause and HRT—Shanji is a steady, informed guide through the transitions that can feel anything but straightforward.
Children & adolescents
Shanji brings a thoughtful, developmentally informed approach to baby and toddler health, childhood concerns, and adolescent care—especially around skin issues, mental wellbeing, and neurodiversity (including autism and ADHD).
Skin and dermatology
With formal research training in dermatology, she is particularly skilled at assessing and managing skin conditions—helping patients feel confident about what’s going on and what to do next.
Her patients describe her as warm, approachable and genuinely caring—the kind of doctor you can talk to, trust, and come back to. That continuity matters, and Shanji builds it naturally.
If you’ve been meaning to find “your GP”—the one you feel comfortable booking again—Dr Shanji may be exactly who you’ve been looking for.
Appointments are now available.
