Dr Hannah-Gerti Krause AO

MBBS, MPhil

At St Margaret’s 1984-1985


Dr Hannah Krause AO completed her senior years at St Margaret’s and graduated from The University of Queensland with Bachelors of Medicine and Surgery in 1991. In 1995, in Ethiopia, she witnessed the problems low-income women faced from complications arising from limited access to obstetric care, an experience which encouraged her to specialise in obstetrics and gynaecology.

She completed her obstetrics and gynaecology specialty training with the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists and was made Fellow in 2003. In 2006, she became a certified urogynaecologist. She also has a Master of Philosophy at The University of Queensland.

Since 1995 and throughout her career, Dr Krause has sustained regular, self-funded volunteer medical missions in developing countries. In 2016, she was awarded an Order of Australia Medal in the Queen’s Honours list for distinguished service to medicine in the field of urology and gynaecology, particularly through surgical assistance to women in developing countries throughout Asia and Africa.

Hannah was the recipient of St Margaret’s Distinguished Past Student Award in 2019.
