Dr Daniel Tilley
Geriatrician
Conjoint Lecturer UNSW
Fellow of The Royal Australian College of Physicians
Dan works in Port Macquarie NSW as a Geriatrician with a special interest in cognitive disorders, frailty and medical education. He relocated there in 2019 after completing his medical training in Sydney with Royal Prince Alfred, Concord and St. Vincent’s Hospitals.
Dan chose Geriatrics as he felt it had great potential as a medical field. “There is so much knowledge emerging around why we age and the underlying processes of Dementia, resulting in drastic changes in how we approach these diseases. I felt that I could make a real difference and improve the quality of life of people who have played such an important role in developing the history of this country” - Dan.
Outside of work, Dan loves spending time outdoors with his family, exercising, playing music and working in his Civil Celebrant role.

Why do a podcast ?
“Podcasting might be thought of as form of academic gift.”
— Les Back
“Other than the fact that we can choose what we listen to and when we listen to it, podcasts provide a myriad of ways for self-expression outside the common radio format.”
— Andrea Perez
“A Podcast is a great way to develop a relationship with hard to reach people.”
— Tim Paige
“Across all our countries, the main reasons for listening to podcasts are to keep updated about topics of personal interest (46%) and to learn something new (39%).”
