Hunter Allied Care practitioners work with a wide variety of clients - from treating everyday health concerns like general aches and pains, to providing nutritional advice and strategies to improve your psychological wellbeing. They also work with more complex cases that require specialist surgery. The team complement each other well, with each practitioner having a variety of skills and providing the highest level of care for their clients. 

The practitioners at Hunter Allied Care regularly attend education seminars and conferences to further their skills and knowledge in order to provide the most up to date and evidence based care for their clients. The team aim to create a holistic care experience to ensure their clients leave feeling the best they have in years. 

All of the Hunter Allied Care practitioners are registered with Medicare, WorkCover NSW, the Department of Veteran Affairs and the major health funds. We offer HICAPS to allow clients to claim on the spot.
