Our Family

Dr Hannah Burn

Practice Principal and Psychotherapist (B. Med. (UON), FRACGP)


Dr Hannah Burn has always enjoyed helping people, and the science of medicine. She decided to combine the two, graduating from medicine at the University of Newcastle in 2010. During her degree, she undertook specialist training in general medicine, medical oncology, colorectal surgery, psychiatry and emergency care.


Raised in Sydney, she has lived in greater New South Wales since she was 17 years old – first while studying, and then while working throughout the Central Coast, Wollongong and Tamworth. Hannah started work with her grandfather, Dr Ray Burn, under the Rural Doctor’s Network in 2012. She has steadily built a diverse and vibrant patient base through the Old Linton Medical Practice. Hannah completed her Fellowship of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners in 2021.


Known as “Dr Hannah” to many of her patients, Hannah is now focusing on ongoing psychotherapy, building the Practice, and the education of medical students. Always happiest when learning something new. Outside of work, she loves spending time with family (pets and all), friends, and perfecting her homemade French patisserie.


Dr Hannah Burn is no longer taking patients as a GP.

Our Founders

Dr Ray Burn and Dr Ann Daniel

Dr Ray Burn and Dr Ann Daniel had been inseparable for 47 years. They moved to the Yass Valley over two decades ago and founded the Old Linton Medical Practice, where Ray became one of the best-known medical practitioners in the region. After her decorated academic career in the field of sociology, Ann decided to pursue a different path; she began a fine wool farming venture at Toombah Park, and obtained her wool-classing certificate shortly afterward. She continues to run both fine wool sheep and beef cattle, in addition to managing a number of farming operations. Ann has been previously elected to local council, and is passionate about all things Yass Valley. Most recently, Ann has just bottled her first vintage, a young sangiovese, grown at Cockatoo Hill under Gounyan Wines (another venture co-founded by Ann and Ray). 


Ray passed away in 2023, after working in medicine for 40 years. He is survived by Ann, his six children, ten step-children, and innumerable grandchildren. Ray was known for bringing warmth, honesty and humour to every consultation, and is dearly missed by his family and community. You can read a little more about Ray’s life and legacy by clicking here
