Dr Claudia von Peltz (WA)

Claudia is a provisional fellow in WA, doing fellowships in obstetrics and perioperative medicine. She completed half her training in London before returning to Perth, receiving recognition of prior learning and completing the balance of her training in Australia.

She chose anaesthesia as she enjoys the camaraderie of the theatre environment, procedural aspects of the specialty and being able to see the real-time effects of physiology and pharmacology. Claudia was also inspired by several anaesthetists she met in  her early career who demonstrated great kindness, enthusiasm for their work and maintained a well curated work-life balance that she still aspires to achieve one day.

She sits on the WA Training Committee, WA Regional Committee, Safety and Quality Committee, the Trainee Assessment Working Group and the Provisional Fellowship Program Subcommittee.
