Frequenty Asked Questions
What is integrated health care and how can it benefit me?
Our team at Omnicare in Southbank Vic are all about understanding the holistic needs of a patient – not simply treating the illness or disease but by looking at the bigger picture. We provide easy and speedy access to tailored care across multi-healthcare disciplines in order to address the underlying causes and imbalances that affect a patient’s overall health. So while we are a mixed billing and bulk billing doctor in Southbank, patients can visit us for a range of treatments that help with every aspect of their physical and mental wellbeing.
How is a functional/holistic medicine approach favoured over traditional healthcare here in Southbank Vic?
So while traditional medicine asks, “what’s the best treatment for this disease?” holistic medicine asks, “what underlying imbalances or problems need to be addressed to return the body to a better state of health?”
Holistic medicine treats the roots of the problem whereas conventional mixed billing and bulk billing doctors in Southbank will treat the symptoms of the problem.
You mention that you can assist with prevention management – how does this work?
