I'm a Fellowship trained Sports and Exercise Medicine Physician with degrees in Medicine, Physiotherapy and Occupational Health.
I have significant expertise in medical nutriton therapy, especially with respect to low carb, ketogenic, paleolithic and carnivore diets. I regularly lecture on nutrition both in Australia and internationally. Various conditions for which I beleive there to be compelling evidence for nutritional interventions include diabetes, dementia, concussion and many autoimmune conditions. As a sports medicine physician (which required a further 4 years of study after medical school, internship and residency), I also consult with many athletes and act as a consultant for professional sports teams. Additionally, I have a strong academic interest and expertise in chronic pain, especially that related to neck or lower back issues. I respect that 'doctor' in Latin derives from 'teacher' and, educate my patients on the science regarding their treatment options. This allows them to make appropriately informed decisions regarding their care. Futher, where possible, my holistic approach focuses on lifestyle management first, and pharmaceuticals second.
