Welcome to Sante
Welcome to Sante Medical! ‘Sante’ is a French word for ‘good health’ and we feel it perfectly summarises what we are about. We are a small General Practice… with a difference. Our mission is to guide and support you to use evidence-based, targeted lifestyle modifications to improve your overall health. We have longer appointments and use a holistic approach. We provide resources after your appointment to help you implement what you learn and give you a clear roadmap to achieve your best health possible.
You can nominate us to be your ‘regular’ GP, or alternatively if you already have a regular GP, we can liase with them about any intervention we recommend.
Our approach:

Exercise
We all know exercise is good for our health but often times people get injured, overly fatigued and give up. We’ll show you how to approach exercise to match where you’re at with your health now and how to modify this into the future.

Diet
Diet is the most important determinant of health. If you take prescription medication and are planning to make significant changes to your diet, you’ll need ‘medical supervision’ to do this safely. We’ll show you how you can maximise nutrient availability, optimise energy levels and eat delicious meals!

Sleep management
An under-emphasised, but incredibly important determinant of good health is getting enough quality sleep. We’ll show you the best techniques to get the best sleep possible without relying on potentially harmful drugs.
