As an Integrative Pharmacist who focuses in nutrition and lifestyle medicine, my path to my true underlying passion began with a board certification in geriatric pharmacy and conducting clinical medication reviews and therapeutic interventions. I've traversed the intricate landscapes of multiple chronic diseases, often related to lifestyle and ageing. I’ve seen the burdens of a significant medication load and challenges of polypharmacy (the use of multiple medications concurrently). However, after witnessing the end result of lifestyle driven chronic diseases, of which many are preventable, I decided change was in order.
Now, I collaborate closely with other Health Care Professionals, such as GP’s, Specialists, Dieticians and Diabetes Educators, offering insights and recommendations based on my years of expertise and knowledge to treat people holistically- in a 360 manner, as I would say.
My mission is to help those wanting to Age Well, those wanting to take control of their health or avoid a medication dependant lifestyle. Those who want to make use of the latest tests and technologies and the insights they provide to be proactive in their health journey and explore all options to extend their Health Span. With my fellowship in Environmental and Nutritional Medicine, I ensure that I stay at the forefront of advancements in health and wellness to transform current understanding of chronic lifestyle disease management using the four pillars of health: diet, sleep, exercise, and environment.
My practice is tailored towards individuals not only navigating the challenge of chronic diseases, but also those individuals who want to focus on their health and are reluctant to embrace a medication-dependent lifestyle as they age.
I am dedicated to empowering individuals to embrace proactive health management strategies and embark on a journey towards vitality and healthy ageing.
I am on a mission to help people avoid going down the path of multiple conditions requiring multiple medications.
As both a pharmacist and an integrative health practitioner, I offer a unique vantage point, bridging the gap between conventional medicine and complementary therapies. My philosophy is to look at a person holistically and to work out the steps they need to take to set them on a path of ageing well.
Central to my approach is the implementation of the science of nutrigenomic medicine, especially as it relates to the gut as a gateway to our health. Integral to this is an understanding that our immune system serves as the sentinel of health, orchestrating an intricate balance of defence mechanisms to safeguard us against threats. With up to 80% of our immune activity centred in the gut, I emphasize the importance of nurturing gastrointestinal health as a cornerstone of overall well-being.
I take an all-encompassing 360 degree view of a person’s diet and lifestyle, the combination of medications, supplements, their pathology (blood tests), genetic strengths and weaknesses, a profile of their gut microbes and develop strategies to improve overall wellness. I will provide you with a tailored road map and ongoing support to achieve your best health potential.
