Andrew Geoffrey Allan 9 October, 1962 – 19 May, 2025
Robyn & Ken Fung
Phoned for our usual post-France appointment today only to hear the devastating news of Andrew’s death back in May. We are both incredibly sad and send our sincerest sympathy to Cate and their 4 daughters, in particular to Lily who we chatted to many times. Andrew was only our second doctor over 55 years - 25 with John Gallent and the last 30 with Andrew. More than an insightful & professional doctor, he was a friend. We shared his love of travel, and I (Robyn) his love of fishing. Always a good listener, his approach to our medical care was thoughtful, reassuring and always spot-on. If he said ‘ no need to worry’, we didn’t! If he gave advice, we respected & followed it. He will be sorely missed by us both. Robyn & Ken (Olinda)

I'm deeply saddened to learn that Andrew is no longer with us. When he didn’t respond to my messages, I eventually came across this page. I met Andrew six years ago on a remote river in the New Zealand wilderness. We shared our plans with enthusiasm and managed to find compromises that ensured neither of our trips was disrupted. We also agreed to exchange trip reports via email once we returned. From there, we kept in touch through emails and WhatsApp—sharing stories, hobbies, and updates from our lives. At times, I was chatting with Andrew more than with my own family. I really valued our connection and learned so much from him. We had hoped to meet up again one day, but sadly never got the chance. To Andrew’s family and to Garry, his friend—my heartfelt condolences. He was a truly special person, and I’ll miss him deeply.

I am shocked to hear this news. He was a wonderful Dr and I was always so grateful for his support of my late husband and myself. Condolences to Cate, Lily and the entire Allan family Julie Wurf
