Dr Steve Raymond

Founder & Chief Executive Officer

Steve works full time as a specialist Gynaecologist in Newcastle. He specialises particularly in infertility (including IVF), prenatal diagnosis and gynaecological laparoscopic or keyhole surgery. Steve was born in Mauritius and migrated to Australia with his family at the age of 13. He completed his education in Sydney and studied medicine at Sydney University graduating in 1977. His career has spanned over 30 years with great emphasis on education as the key to better healthcare for his patients. He constantly strives to be better educated himself to offer the very best in treatment for the most challenging of gynaecological conditions.

Steve, together with his wife Robyn started working with 3 Angels Nepal in 2011. Steve’s vision to cofound 3 Angel’s Australia arose from a passion to educate vulnerable communities. Steve advocates that access to quality education is a basic right of every child regardless of their religious beliefs, and the best means to fight against human trafficking.

Robyn Raymond

Founder & Director

Robyn has a background working as a physiotherapist (physio) in orthopaedics and sports medicine and neuro-developmental paediatrics. Robyn now divides her time between family, managing Steve Raymond’s Specialist Gynaecology practice, being an international ambassador for 3 Angels Nepal, and her work as a co-founder of 3 Angels Australia.

Robyn is a dedicated Christian with a desire to address human rights injustice and particularly human trafficking. In 2010, Robyn read Max Lucado’s book, “Outlive Your Life,” and was inspired to make a difference. Lucado’s advice was that “no-one can do everything but everyone can do something”. Robyn’s passion to empower those most vulnerable through access to education is continually fed after visits to Nepal.
