Ferry Grunseit was an activist paediatrician who co-founded the Aboriginal Medical Service in Redfern 50 years ago with Gordon Briscoe, Shirley Smith (Mum Shirl) and the legendary Fred Hollows. With fellow paediatricians, he also made regular visits to clinics in Bourke, Walgett and other towns in western NSW.
In 1969, he set up an Adoption Advisory Clinic for NSW, dealing with the medical problems of children for adoption. He also managed families with abused children. After retiring from clinical practice, he was appointed chair of the NSW Child Protection Council in the early 1990s and advocated successfully for establishing the Child Deaths Review Committee, aiming to prevent and reduce child deaths.
