Appointed captain, Australian Army Medical Corps, Australian Imperial Force, on 17 June 1918, he was disappointed not to serve overseas, but worked in the army's anti-tuberculosis dispensary at Randwick, gaining experience in diseases of the chest. He transferred to the Reserve of Officers on 29 October 1919. From ADB entry

In the early 1930s he helped to establish the Catholic Medical Guild of St Luke. He became a respected counsellor—in more than medical matters—to Church leaders such as Cardinal (Sir) Norman Gilroy. With J. H. McClemens, he was a founder of the Newman Association of Catholic Graduates at the university; from 1953 he was chairman of Sancta Sophia College council. ADB entry
