Vicki joined the team at Belair Medical in early 2013, working part time alongside the GP’s, with a particular focus on Women’s Health and incontinence.

Vicki has lived in Eden Hills and worked down at Mitcham Rehab for more than 20 years and really enjoys being “a true local”. Vicki is a musculoskeletal physiotherapist, with a clinical interest in the pelvic floor. She is passionate about educating men and women in the prevention and treatment of problems in this area. A special interest is pelvic organ prolapse and management with support pessaries.

Belair Medical provides a unique service offering pessary fitting by a trained physiotherapist, with the backup of a medical practitioner. Pregnancy, the post-natal period and around the menopause, are other areas where Vicki encourages women to seek advice, in particular with regard to safe exercise options and prolapse prevention.
