Dr Ivy Bullen

Dr Bullen graduated in medicine in 1971 from the University of WA. In 1972 and 1973 she worked as a Resident Medical Officer at Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital, and in 1974 became a Registrar in Respiratory Medicine at that same hospital. In 1975 she commenced her own General Practice in Wembley Downs. In 1976 she felt it important to incorporate obstetrics into her General practice, and so decided to train for the Diploma in Obstetrics through the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists. To do this meant taking up a full time position at King Edward Memorial Hospital for twelve months. Because she did not want to abandon her own practice, she would do sessions every evening – often until midnight, using a locum to work for her in the mornings. Subsequently, she spent many enjoyable years incorporating obstetrics into her General Practice. In 1989 Dr Bullen felt that there was a huge need in the community for more support for cancer patients and their families, and subsequently founded Balya Cancer Self Help and Wellness, which would give support, education encouragement and hope to these people in a ‘time out’ Retreat situation. Over the years she became more and more interested in nutrition and the environment in relation to disease, and the prevention of disease, and then in 97' became a Fellow of the Australasian College of Nutritional and Environmental Medicine. For many years she was a Board Member of the Melbourne based College and also its West Australian representative. Dr Bullen has received numerous awards for her services to the community. In November 98' Dr. Bullen was honoured by the Scarborough Beach Rotary Club to receive the “Rotary International Paul Harris Fellowship for Contribution to the Community”; in the 2005 Australian Of The Year Awards she was awarded "The West Australian Hero Metropolitan"; and in June 2005 she was presented with the 2005 "Citizen Of The Year" award for community service.
