From the practitioner: About My Practice

I am the only GP that is practicing Functional Medicine at my current practice. Please mention that you are keen to explore functional medicine further when booking with my receptionists so that they can book a longer first appointment (rather than the standard appt for Medicare consults). Phone consultations can be arranged for subsequent follow up appointments. You can request for phone consultations from the start but you will not be able to receive Medicare rebates for that.

From the practitioner: What Patients Can Expect

I believe western medicine doesnt have the answers to everything. Functional Medicine addresses that gap and also looks further upstream at the root causes of diseases.
