Quality education is the driving force behind Professor Peter Jones, Bond University’s new Deputy Dean of Medicine.

Peter Jones became the new Deputy Dean of Medicine at Bond University. He had spent the previous six years in Tamworth running rural health education programs for the University of Newcastle.

Peter established the University Department of Rural Health, Northern New South Wales in Tamworth in 2002 and was appointed the foundation Director of Newcastle University Medical School’s Rural Clinical School in 2006.

A consultant paediatrician, Prof Jones says his career thus far has managed to blend his significant interests – medicine, children and education.

“When I was at school there were two things I thought I really wanted to do – one was to be a school teacher and the other was to be a family GP,” explains Prof Jones.

“My father was a doctor (a radiologist) and in the end I opted for paediatrics. I soon became interested in medical education so what I do now is really a nice mix.”
