Now a beloved member of the Melburnian obstetric and gynaecological community, Dr Ekaterina Jovic (pronounced ‘Joh-vick’) is originally from Russia. She undertook her formative, school and medical degree around the beautiful city of Novgorod, where she also completed her first obstetrics and gynaecology specialty training. She moved to Australia in 2007 and started a family with her Australian husband. She completed her Australian Medical Council certification in 2011, and became a proud Australian citizen in 2012. Australia is her home, and she is proud to have raised her family here.
Professionally, Ekaterina spent her first few years in Australia working in hospitals in Melbourne: Monash Health, The Northern Hospital, and the Royal Women’s Hospital. She moved to Canberra in 2017, where she undertook her obstetrics and gynaecology specialty training through the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RANZCOG). She returned to Melbourne’s Royal Women’s Hospital in 2021. Apart from her role consulting at Maven Centre, Dr Jovic currently works almost full-time at the Northern Hospital (in Epping), in both obstetrics and gynaecology.
Dr Jovic never rushes with patients, and spends the time required to understand the patient’s needs and requirements. As well as English, Dr Jovic is fluent in Russian.
Dr Jovic has a strong interest in teaching, having spent several years tutoring international medical graduates. She is a clinical teaching Fellow for the University of Melbourne, and takes pride in educating the next generation of young doctors.
When at home in Melbourne, Katerina loves reading classic books, and attending the theatre, cinema, and arts events. When not at work, Dr Jovic loves spending any spare time with her family: husband, two children, and chocolate brown border collie. The family loves to spend time exploring new places together, or trying to overcome escape rooms!
