Vale Dr Kevin Tee
It is with profound sadness that we acknowledge the sudden passing of Dr Kevin Tee in February 2025.
Kevin was a GP registrar at Next Practice Deakin and an academic registrar at ANU. In the nine months he spent with us at Next Practice Deakin, he quickly became an integral part of our practice family. He developed a loyal following of patients who greatly valued his warmth, care, and clinical skill. Kevin’s genuine compassion and dedication were clear to all who knew him — something exemplified when one of his patients, along with their carer, broke down in tears upon hearing of his sudden passing.
Kevin consistently went above and beyond in his care for patients. He was a deeply reflective practitioner, always seeking ways to improve his practice and enhance the care he provided. Insightful, thoughtful, and committed, he was the kind of doctor who left a lasting impression.
Amongst his colleagues — fellow doctors, nurses, reception staff, and allied health team members — Kevin was equally respected and liked. He quickly became part of the fabric of the practice, taking an active role in team building events and projects, and contributing with enthusiasm, leadership, and good humour.
Kevin’s passing leaves a significant gap in our team, and he will be missed by patients, colleagues, and the wider community alike.
He displayed all the hallmarks of an excellent general practitioner — compassionate, curious, collaborative, and constantly striving to improve the care he provided.
