Clinical Focus

Gastroenterology & Digestive Health

CLINICAL FOCUS

I have spent the past 10+ years in general practise treating all manner of conditions and complaints. I have always had an affinity for internal medicine; women’s health, skin conditions, energy levels, sleep issues, etc. My greatest interest and passion however has always been in the treatment of digestive disorders; and I now focus much of my clinical practise in this area.

My interest in gastroenterology dove-tails nicely with my interest in health cultivation and well-being, with diet and health promotion being an avid passion of mine for the better part of two decades.

MY APPROACH

Clinically, I am extremely pragmatic and results driven. While I understand some may share my interest and fascination with the ancient medical systems of the world, I know its not important to many. You’re unwell and you want to feel better. This is my focus in clinic.

Much of my consultation work is now done online given the central role of Chinese herbal medicine in the treatment of digestive disorders, and the ease with which I can have individualised herbal formulas sent directly to your door wherever you are Australia wide.

If you would like the additional support of acupuncture (and various other tools such as moxibustion) I offer in-home mobile acupuncture services across the greater Melbourne area.
