I am a gastroenterologist and hepatologist based in Melbourne, committed to providing thorough, compassionate, and evidence-based care to all of my patients.

I completed my advanced training in gastroenterology at Monash Health and Austin Health, as well as at the Victorian Liver Transplant Unit. I then undertook a hepatology fellowship at King’s College Hospital in London, United Kingdom. I currently work as a consultant at Monash Health and previously worked at Western Health and Eastern Health.

For patients seeking weight loss and metabolic health improvement, I provide endoscopic, non-surgical weight loss procedures, namely the intra-gastric balloon (IGB) and Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG) following rigorous further training.

My approach is centred on delivering personalised care to each of my patients, ensuring that each feels informed, supported, and confident in their treatment plan.

Areas of Expertise

Conditions Treated

Liver Disease

Dr Peverelle specialises in diagnosing and treating a wide range of liver diseases. Diseases that affect the liver are highly diverse and include fatty liver disease, alcohol-related liver disease, hepatitis, and liver tumours.
Obesity / Metabolic Syndrome

Obesity is a complex, chronic medical condition, and like all chronic conditions, it requires a long-term strategy rather than a short-term solution.
Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)

Inflammatory Bowel Disease is an autoimmune condition where the body’s own immune system attacks the gut, causing gut inflammation (Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis).
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and Disorders of Gut-Brain Interaction (DGBI)

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) has recently been changed to ‘Disorders of Gut-Brain Interaction (DGBI)’ to reflect that neurological miscommunication between the gut and the brain is a hallmark feature and leads to GI issues.
Polyps

Polyps are the number one risk factor for developing cancer of the bowel and do not cause symptoms. They can be readily removed during a colonoscopy.
Bowel Cancer

Bowel cancer is one of the most common, but also one of the most preventable, cancers in Australia. Stool testing and colonoscopy are two effective ways to check for cancer of the bowel.
Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO)

An under-recognised condition, SIBO occurs when bacteria that normally live in the large bowel migrate and overgrow in the small intestine, disrupting normal gut function.
Oesophageal Disease

Diseases affecting the oesophagus are common and include acid reflux, difficulty swallowing and regurgitation.
