About Dr. Sivateja Mukkamala

A Journey from Hyderabad to Australian Healthcare

Born and raised in Hyderabad, Telangana, India. I embarked on a transformative journey that led me from the vibrant streets of my hometown to becoming a General Practitioner serving the Australian community for over a decade.

My Australian Story

Sixteen years ago, I arrived in Australia as an international student at Deakin University, pursuing a Master of Health Promotion. Like many first-generation immigrants, my path was paved with determination, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment to my dreams. To support my education and fund my Australian Medical Council exams and bridging courses, I worked night shifts at fuel stations and day time as a disability support worker. That was a humbling experience that taught me the value of hard work and resilience.

Today, I am proud to be a Fellow of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) and a distinguished alumnus of Deakin University Melbourne, having practiced as a GP for 13 years.

Family & Roots

As the youngest in a family of five, I was shaped by the values instilled by my hardworking father and my dedicated homemaker mother. Growing up alongside my twin siblings, an older brother and sister taught me the importance of family bonds and mutual support. These foundations continue to guide me as I now raise my own family in Australia.

I am blessed to be married to a loving wife who excels in her IT profession, and together we are raising two beautiful boys, aged 6 and 2. Balancing family life with professional commitments has enriched my understanding of the challenges many of my patients face.
