She completed her medical degree at Deakin University in 2011 after first completing a Bachelor of Biological Science, and undertook specialist haematology training across Barwon Health, St Vincent’s Hospital Melbourne, Austin Health and Northern Health.
Before studying medicine, Dr Maddy worked as a laboratory technician and medical scientist, giving her an early foundation in laboratory medicine that complements her later clinical and laboratory haematology training. She was awarded dual fellowships of the Royal Australasian College of Physicians and the Royal College of Pathologists of Australasia in 2020.
From 2020 to 2023, Dr Maddy worked as a Consultant Haematologist at Goulburn Valley Hospital, where she helped establish an onsite haematology service, outpatient bone marrow biopsies in Day Oncology and the health service’s first telehealth haematology trial. She has since continued consultant practice across Northern Health and private haematology services in Melbourne and Geelong, including Northern Blood & Cancer Care at Northern Private Hospital.
Dr Maddy enjoys the breadth of haematology and brings a practical, patient-centred approach to investigation and treatment. Medical education is also an important part of her work, with teaching experience spanning medical students, interns, hospital medical officers and basic physician trainees.

Dr Maddy has published and presented across malignant haematology, transfusion medicine and diagnostic haematology. Her peer-reviewed publications include work in BMC Neurology on EBV-related lymphomatoid granulomatosis, the British Journal of Haematology on Richter syndrome, ISBT Science Series on transfusion leadership, and the Internal Medicine Journal on ibrutinib and antimicrobial therapy in chronic lymphocytic leukaemia.
