Want to be part of a pioneering clinic that's leading the way in healthcare in Australia?
Our clinic is growing rapidly, so we're looking for people with exceptional talent to join our team.
About our clinic
At Melbourne Functional Medicine, we’re on a mission to change people's lives and solve the chronic disease epidemic by changing the way healthcare is done.
Our model of healthcare combines cutting edge, evidence based functional medicine with results focused health coaching to offer uniquely personalised support to patients that amplifies their health outcomes.
This approach involves giving patients a high level of care. We spend as much time with a patient as they need to get better, by collaborating with a practitioner who solves their case, and a health coach who supports them to get well again.
Our team is passionate, driven and focused on delivering a truly exceptional healthcare experience for our patients. We also extend this level of care to our team members, prioritising their health and well-being too.
Our values and culture
Innovation is our currency
We seek to innovate within ourselves and the business, fostering an environment of continual upleveling. We encourage upskilling and bringing new ideas to the table.
Lead with your head, though don’t forget your heart
We’re results-driven, scientific, and analytical, yet we balance that with empathy and understanding for patients and our MFM family. We're all humans, after all.
Think like a leader
As leaders in our field, we encourage being open minded, bold, persistent, emotionally intelligent, agile, inspirational, collaborative, and growth focused.
We practice what we preach
We’re all about self-care, balance, and treating our health (and ourselves) as our number one asset while maintaining a healthy work-life balance.
Integrity, always.
We do what needs to be done, and say what needs to be said, with integrity. This means being honest, transparent, and wanting the best outcome for all involved.
We collaborate to deliver results
Relationships are key to success with our patients and our team. We love working together to unite our unique strengths for the best possible outcomes.
