I'm Val, a Functional Medicine Practitioner based in Albert Park, Melbourne with over 15 years of experience studying health and nutritional medicine.

I work with patients who are experiencing chronic, ongoing health issues that haven’t been resolved through conventional medicine. Functional Medicine is grounded in conventional medical principles but goes much deeper—looking beyond the symptoms to uncover and address the root causes of illnesss.

​

My focus is to get a detailed understanding of your medical history, medications, when your health issues began, reviewing your blood tests, CTs, MRIs etc and examining all your symptoms to uncover the root cause of your illness. 

Functional Medicine is not just about identifying a single cause—it’s a detailed investigation into all the factors that have contributed to your current state of health. Conventional models often don’t have the time or scope for this level of exploration. Functional Medicine offers a thorough, investigative approach—not a quick fix, but a pathway to lasting, meaningful change.
