Dr Kate Naylor is a fully qualified, experienced GP, who completed undergraduate training at Monash University in 2002 and went on to complete her Fellowship in General Practice in Brisbane in 2010.

She has extensive experience in supporting breastfeeding mothers and babies, helping with common problems like mastitis, nipple thrush, breast lumps, low supply, over supply, white spot, tongue tie, feeding multiples and mental health issues in the post-partum period.

Dr Naylor is also accredited to perform Shared Antenatal Care with  Monash Health, The Women’s Hospital, Mercy Hospital and Frankston Hospital.

As an additional special interest, Dr Naylor is adept at performing skin checks for skin cancer surveillance, including photography of concerning moles, and can perform minor biopsies in the clinic if required.  She holds a Certificate in Skin Cancer Therapeutics and a Certificate in Dermatoscopy through University of QLD.
