Our Doctors

Dr Jonathan Fenton Director, General Practitioner

Dr Jonathan Fenton is a UK-trained General Practitioner, with extensive experience in Diabetes Management, Men’s Health and Sexual Health.

Dr Jonny relocated to tropical North Queensland from Ireland, having completed his medical degree at the University of Glasgow, Scotland.  He then moved to London where he worked within King’s College Hospital’s renowned sexual health department, leading the way in treatments for sexually-transmitted infections and prevention strategies for their spread.

 

Seeking warmer climes, Dr Jonny moved to Melbourne for two years to work in Eastern Health’s Emergency and Intensive Care Departments before returning to Scotland to embark on his General Practitioner training within the NHS. Here he excelled within a number of areas including Sexual Health, Psychiatry and Obstetrics before qualifying in 2015 as a General Practitioner.

 

In 2017 Dr Jonny made the move back to Australia and this time calls Queensland home. Now a fellow of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners, he works in Townsville as a GP and now at Verve Men’s Clinic. As a new Australian citizen, Dr Jonny is keen to improve the health of north Queensland men and to encourage them to seek better health outcomes for themselves.

 

Dr Jonny is passionate about normalising conditions such as erectile dysfunction, to encourage men to seek advice and assistance for the good of their sexual and mental health. Dr Jonny now offers non-surgical procedures to regional Queenslanders which can improve patient intimate relationships, confidence and overall health.

 

Dr Jonny is excited to be able to offer full GP services at Verve Men’s Clinic and is currently open to new patients.

Every patient is unique and results may vary. Invasive procedures carry risks which need to be discussed with your doctor to ensure you are fully informed and realistic outcomes have been explained. We recommend seeking a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner for all medical procedures.
