Biography

Dr Hume graduated from The University of Queensland with first class honours before she completed her postgraduate training in gastroenterology at the Royal Brisbane and Womens Hospital (RBWH).

Her special interests include Inflammatory Bowel Disease, general gastroenterology, colonoscopy and endoscopy.

She is currently involved in Inflammatory Bowel Disease research as part of the RBWH Inflammatory Bowel Diseases Research Group and is completing her PhD through the Queensland Institute of Medical Research and The University of Queensland.

Dr Hume has been a part-time staff specialist at RBWH for the past seven years.

She said that one of the most rewarding aspects of her role was the diversity of her private practice, which includes sessions at Mater Private Hospital Brisbane’s Endoscopy Unit.

Her greatest professional achievement so far has been continuing her public and private practice while undertaking research and her PhD with tremendous support from her colleagues and husband following the birth of each of her four children.
