Dr Adhikari graduated in Medicine from the University of Western Australia in 2011 and spent several years working on the east coast before coming back to sunny WA. She earned her Diploma of Child Health while working at the Westmead Children's Hospital, and her Fellowship from the Australian College of General Practitioners. 

Professionally, she has developed a special interest in supporting caregivers through the early years of childrearing. She believes in providing a safe, non-judgemental space to discuss the difficulties that can occur with both healthy children and those with medical concerns. 

She values a holistic approach to medicine, and offers practical problem-solving strategies to assist children and families. As a mother herself she understands the importance of early, individualised support, and is committed to caring for all family units, whatever that may look like.

When not working she attempts to cook (but not burn the toast), enjoys travel (when she gets the time) and finds ‘dad jokes’ highly amusing.
