Dr Bradley Townend
Ophthalmology
About
With a particular interest in cataract surgery, Brad participates in regular cataract work for the Fred Hollows Foundation and previously took 6 months ‘off work’ and worked for the Fred Hollows Foundation in Nepal, the Pacific islands and Alice Springs. This work has enabled him to contribute to the eye health of thousands of patients in under-privileged areas, and as a result Brad has learned a lot about the world, ophthalmology and himself during these adventures!
Brad's interest in cataract surgery led him to publish a number of research papers in this area. He and his wife, who is a dietitian, have also published a book on Eye Nutrition for patients which investigates various foods and nutritional supplements that have been proven to be useful in promoting eye health, particularly in relation to cataract and macular degeneration. He is passionate about healthful living.
Brad is currently in private practice at Coastwide Eye Surgery and serves as an ophthalmologist. He operates at Central Coast Day Hospital, Tuggerah Lakes Private Hospital and both Gosford and Wyong public hospitals where he acts as the head of department for ophthalmology. Brad enjoys the saxophone, cricket and cycling.
“Evidence-based care tailored to each patient — taking the time to explain options and shared decisions.”
