Learning & Teaching

COMMITMENT

Dr Moncrieff is a regular speaker at industry conferences to share his experience and expertise with Plastic Surgeons from Australia and across the world.

These include presenting on breast augmentation and reductions at the 2024 Advanced Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Workshop in Melbourne and presenting on breast augmentation at 2023 Australasian Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeon's Conference on the Gold Coast. He also presented on breast augmentation at the Mentor Summit for Brazilian Plastic Surgeons in 2023.

He has been published in medical literature and regularly presents at medical forums around the country.

Examples include Dr Moncrieff co-authoring a paper on the functional benefits of tummy tucks which was published in the internationally acclaimed Plastic and Reconstructive Journal of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. In 2019 that paper won the best new author award and was a key factor in the government's decision to reinstate a Medicare item number for mothers requiring abdominoplasty after pregnancy in July 2022.

In 2020 he took on a role as a peer reviewer of papers submitted to the Australasian Journal of Plastic Surgery, helping ensure high quality research and insights are published by fellow surgeons.

Dr Moncrieff is an Australian surgical adviser on the International Mentor Global Scientific Advisory Board. He provides input on safety, patient preferences and education in the field of breast surgery. In 2022 he hosted a number of other Plastic Surgeons in his clinic and operating theatre to share his expertise in breast surgery.

His work has also been recognised with awards from his colleague and industry experts. These include the Australasian Surgical Body Makeover of the Year for the second year in a row awarded at the 2020 Global MyFaceMyBody Awards.

Dr Moncrieff is a senior member of the  Charlestown Private Hospital Medical Advisory Committee. He regularly presents to nursing and medical teams in local hospitals on plastic surgery and patient care.

Family and fishing

Dr Moncrieff Newcastle's Award Winning Plastic and Cosmetic Surgeon

Outside his practice, Dr Moncrieff is a proud father of three boys, including twins, and a patient fisherman. What do those interests mean for you? That he can multi-task, stays very calm under pressure and remains focused for hours – nice traits to have in a surgeon!

When Choosing Your Surgeon

Concerningly, more and more people are calling themselves ‘cosmetic surgeons’ as they are attracted to the potential growth in demand for cosmetic surgery – always without the rigorous training and examinations Plastic Surgeons have had to complete. 

While changes to the laws across Australia in 2023 prohibited medical professionals who have not undergone formal surgical training from calling themselves a ‘cosmetic surgeon', we are still seeing examples of this happening.

Your safeguard is to look for a fully qualified Plastic Surgeon as reflected by the letters FRACS (Plast Surg) under a doctor’s name and check that they are affiliated with the Australian Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). These titles and memberships are only available to fully qualified Plastic Surgeons who have undergone many years of training and exams in surgery beyond basic medical school training.

My purpose is to help women achieve their goals from surgery with a focus on safety and support.
