Biography

Dr Olphert is a fellowship-trained urological surgeon (FRACS, 2019) with advanced sub-speciality expertise gained through three years of intensive training at University College Hospital London. During this time, she developed high-level skills in genitourinary reconstructive surgery, robotic uro-oncology, and complex retroperitoneal procedures within one of the UK's leading high-volume centres.

Her experience spans robotic prostate and bladder surgery, as well as reconstructive procedures for congenital, malignant, surgical, radiation-related or traumatic urinary tract conditions.

Dr Olphert's recontructive repertoire includes urethrosplasty, perineal urethrostomy, artificial urinary sphincter surgery, and mangement of complex genitourinary trauma. She completed additional minimally invasive robotic oncology training in the UK's highest volume prostatectomy centre, focusing on robotic radical prostatectomy and cystecomy with intracorporeal diversion. Further subspecialty training at the Royal Marsden Hospital strengthened her expertise in retroperitoneal lymph node dissection. 

Her international fellowships build on a comprehensive, high-volume urology training program completed across major NSW hospitals. She is experienced in complex open, laparoscopic, robotic, and endoscopic surgery and is dedicated to delivering exceptional technical and holistic care.

Better and fairer care. Always.
