Doctor Andrew Rochford joined the What's Good for You team on the Nine Network as the resident medicine man and human guinea pig. In his role on the series thus far, he has eaten fifteen kilos of carrots to see whether his eyesight improves, stung himself with bluebottles to test five different remedies and waxed one side of his body to see if the hair will grow back coarser and darker.

Andrew also hosts the ‘Waiting Room’, a medical-based factual reality program, Ýou Saved My Life', and ‘Amazing Medical Stories’, on the Nine Network. Demystifying medical myths for TV goes hand in hand with his work as an Emergency Registrar at the Royal North Shore Hospital.

Andrew has previously worked in Brisbane at Princess Alexandra Hospital as well as Concord, Canterbury and Royal North Shore Hospitals in Sydney.

Formerly known as the ‘Block Doc’, Andrew became known to Australia’s TV viewing public for his stint on the 2004 series of The Block with his wife Jamie, where they subsequently won the series.

Andrew is a Graduate of The University of Sydney Medical School (Bachelor of Medicine / Bachelor of Surgery), completing the graduate medical program with honours. To compliment this he also holds a Bachelors Degree in Medical Science from the University of Sydney, majoring in Anatomy and Neuroscience.

Andrew provides columns for Woman’s Day and Australian Men’s Fitness each month as their resident Doctor, and also makes fortnightly appearances on Mornings with Kerri-Anne, covering medical issues.

Andrew has also been published in the journal Neurosurgery as part of a research project for the Cerebrovascular Centre at Royal North Shore Hospital, St Leonards, Sydney.

His specific medical interests include Trauma, Critical Care and Preventative Medicine. Andrew is also an Ambassador for Drink Wise, which seeks to promote a change towards a more responsible drinking culture in Australia.
