NUTRITION & DIETETICS
Detailed nutritional, biochemical & metabolic assessments & therapy, based on the philosophy that gut health and what you eat is at the core of wellbeing.
We offer the best of integrative, functional, nutritional and lifestyle medicine alongside high quality conventional general practice care.
This is a home base for your wellness, where you can seek integrative approaches from some practitioners whilst maintaining your GP care with others. Your records and results are all in the one place. We look very much at the whole person and seek to heal root causes of health issues. This is holistic medicine practised in a very scientific ("evidence based") way, at the cutting edge of applying medical research to clinical practice.
Northside practitioners are here because of their level of experience and skill, and because of who they are. We recognise that it is not enough to be just clinically excellent or a caring practitioner but that a patient rightly wants both.
The culture of our clinic is one of kindness. We value being respectful and calm. Children are made welcome. Northside is a small clinic where the quality is more important than the quantity- a small, comfortable, welcoming, healing space.
APPOINTMENTS
At Northside Health we take pride in making sure you get the service and care you need. We offer many more options than a usual General Practice so our receptionists are skilled at helping you choose the best match for your needs. We offer General Practitioner appointments with Dr Rebecca George, Dr Melanie Parashar, Dr Rebecca Shugg, Dr Penny Steele and we can assist with your enquiry for an integrative/functional specialist doctor's appointment.
We can discuss or book you into our Naturopath, Physio/Osteo or Psychologist.
We run the Darwin LGBTI Monthly Clinic with visiting LGBTI doctors; please call or email for appointments (only LGBTI Clinic appointments are bulk billed).
