Self employed for over 20 years in health care, co-opening and managing a natural health clinic and working with doctors. Unravelling a patient's health issues to find the cause can be very complex; requiring skill, patience and a very solution focussed mindset. Every person is different, requiring a creative approach to what will work best for them in a heart felt wish that they become well. Opening the clinic was a creative leap- from designing personalised operating systems for the team, to choosing and hands on doing the interior decor and furnishings.
