Clinicians
Our collaborative team of Clinicians all work on the basis that it is both sensible and more effective to address the underlying cause of illness rather than simply treating the symptoms of ill health.

Dr. Kemi Adu is an experienced specialist GP and has been practicing in Australia for several years. She has a great passion for supporting women through all stages of their health journey, especially with issues related to their hormones (with a special interest in Menopause) and mental health. Her career is motivated by a desire to help
people during their most vulnerable moments, and this empathy is reflected in her work. Kemi’s focus on women’s
health stems from her recognition that many women often put their own care last and may feel hesitant to share their health concerns. She is dedicated to menopause
management because she sees the profound, positive effects it can have not just on women but on their families
and society at large.
Dr. Kemi takes a biopsychosocial approach to care, considering physical, mental, emotional, and social factors in her personalised treatments. She understands that an integrative perspective to patient's care is of great value for best outcomes. She prioritises active listening, shared decision-making, and empowering women with education and support throughout their menopause journey.
Beyond specialising in the menopause transition/ women’s health and mental health, Dr Kemi was a RACGP examiner
for several years, and she remains a GP registrar supervisor and mentors healthcare professionals in general practice.
Dr Kemi Adu has done some training with Biobalance in the utility of nutrients in the management of Mental health.
Dr Kemi is a member of Australasian College of Nutritional and Environmental Medicine (ACNEM) with a special
interest in women’s health.
