Dr Steve Raymond

Founder & Chief Executive Officer

Steve works full-time as a specialist Gynaecologist in Newcastle, with a focus on infertility (including IVF), prenatal diagnosis, and gynaecological laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery. Born in Mauritius, he migrated to Australia at age 13, completed his education in Sydney, and graduated in Medicine from the University of Sydney in 1977.

With a career spanning over 30 years, Steve places a strong emphasis on education as the key to improving healthcare. He continually seeks to expand his knowledge to provide the best possible treatment for complex gynaecological conditions.

Steve and his wife Robyn began working with 3 Angels Nepal in 2011. His vision to co-found Give Freedom International grew from a passion to educate vulnerable communities. He believes quality education is a basic right for every child and a vital tool in the fight against human trafficking. Steve is inspired by Nelson Mandela’s quote: “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”
