Giselle Cooke

HOLISTIC HEALTH CONSULTANT, HERBAL MEDICINE

MBBS, DBM, PhD (Cand.)

I have always found that integrative teamwork can deliver far more impressive outcomes than with the care of a single practitioner. Our bodies and minds are exquisitely designed and need to be fastidiously maintained to achieve peak performance. The holistic health consultant can offer you guidance to make the best choices in every moment for your entire wellbeing and sanity.”

Giselle Cooke has practised holistic & integrative medicine in Australia since graduating from the University of NSW in Medicine and Surgery in 1979. She expanded upon her medical training with postgraduate studies in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Western Herbalism, Nutrition, Ayurveda and mind-body medicine. Giselle founded the multidisciplinary clinic, Pymble Grove Health Centre in 1989, opened The Modern Apothecary herbal dispensary & teahouse in 2003, and her adjacent holistic health practice, Health Alchemy, the following year."

Giselle now works as a holistic health consultant, specialising in wellness medicine, optimal ageing and epigenetic interventions. She does not practice as a medical doctor. Her current research-based clinical focus is on the human microbiome and metabolome and its far-reaching impacts on our health. She is currently undertaking PhD research at The University of Sydney into male infertility and its relationship to the emerging field of the human microbiome. Amongst her political activities, Giselle has served in an advisory capacity to government committees on complementary and alternative medicine for over two decades.
