Lifestyle Health

Optimise your wellbeing and performance by making small, practical changes in your busy life. Dr Rachel Bedser, Lifestyle Medicine Physician will guide you through the process.

For those ready to move beyond symptom management, and invest in understanding —and shifting — what's really going on beneath the surface.

This is for you if...

  • You want to understand why, not just be handed another prescription. You're living with persistent fatigue, digestive discomfort, stubborn weight, inflammation, or hormonal imbalances — and sense something isn't quite right, even when your results come back "normal." You're ready to explore the metabolic, lifestyle, and nervous system factors connecting your symptoms, rather than treating each one in isolation.
  • You're ready to be an active partner in this process — bringing reflection, small daily shifts and openness to trying things that may feel unfamiliar at first.
  • You value having the time to be properly heard, by a physician with the space to look at the whole picture and think alongside you.
  • You see your health as a long-term investment and are ready to commit time, energy and financial resources towards a stronger foundation for the years ahead.

This is NOT for you if...

  • You're looking for a quick fix, rather than real, sustainable change. 
  • You're not yet ready to shift habits or take fuller ownership of your health — and that's a genuinely okay place to be, just not the starting point this work requires. 
  • You'd prefer a more passive approach, where responsibility sits mainly with the doctor rather than being shared.

What to expect & what you'll achieve

We won't chase symptoms in isolation — together, we'll build a clearer picture of your biology and what's been getting in the way of it functioning well.

  • A longitudinal picture of your health story. We'll look closely at your history, environment, and biology, so patterns which once felt random start to make sense. 
  • Less guesswork, more understanding. You'll come away with a clearer sense of the everyday levers available to you — lifestyle shifts, habits and where relevant, further testing, so choices feel informed rather than trail and error.
  • A roadmap you can keep walking. Real change tends to unfold gradually rather than all at once. Small, consistent steps in the right direction build on each other over time. 
  • Growing confidence in your own hands. Over time, the goal is for you to carry this understanding forward yourself, with the knowledge and tools to keep navigating your health long after our work together. 

Your investment

This work is structured for depth and continuity, not a single quick appointment.

Appointments are $400 for a 40-minute appointment reflecting the additional time and expertise applied to your health plan beyond the consultation itself. Functional testing or treatments recommended as part of your plan may incur additional costs. Medicare rebates may apply.

  • Plan for an initial course of around six appointments over six to eight months — typically an early review within two weeks, then every four to six weeks through the first six months. This rhythm gives us the momentum and continuity needed to properly find your way forward together. 
  • Ongoing care is available beyond this, potentially as shorter 20-minute reviews ($200), for those who'd like to keep working together once the initial groundwork is in place.
