A popular Surfers Paradise doctor who specialises in children’s health has been named the Gold Coast’s best GP.

A Gold Coast doctor named the best on the Gold Coast says he is “honoured” by the award.

Bulletin readers voted Dr Riaan Jeffrey from Capri Medical Centre in Surfers Paradise the

best local GP in the city.

Dr Jeffrey started his career as a doctor in 1992 and began working at Capri Medical Centre in 2015, specialising in children’s health and minor surgical and cosmetic procedures.

“I don’t follow social media, so I had no idea the competition was happening,” Dr Jeffrey

said.

“It’s quite an honour to hear such a thing.”

Dr Jeffrey specialises in Upper Blepharoplasty surgery, a procedure which removes excess eyelid skin, and is also known for cosmetic injectables and skin rejuvenation treatments.

He also specialises in children’s health.

“At Capri Medical we like to fix problems that other doctors can’t, and we make children a

focus of that,” Dr Jeffrey said.

“My entire office is covered in artworks from all the children I’ve worked on, it’s wonderful.”
