AHPRA Registered Acupuncturist and Herbalist
hello,
If you are looking for me in Jindabyne, you have reached the right page.
Below is my bio but just to give you a quick brief, I will be working from 9th June to 26th August at 7 Baggs Street in Leesdale.
I’m still setting everything up and transferring information in the clinic system so that it will work for Jindabyne clinic which is why the bookings buttons do not yet work on this website. If you want to know more or book an appointment then send me an email and I will get back to you same day. – thanks 🙂
