She holds a Bachelor of Science in biology and psychology from the University of Tel Aviv (Summa Cum Laude), a PhD in neuroscience from the University of NSW and an MBBS from the Sydney Medical School at the University of Sydney.
She has been passionate about integrative medicine since her parents used it successfully to treat her childhood asthma and she has always known she would like to practice medicine in this way. To that extent, she has undertaken the ADAPT training in functional and ancestral medicine at the Kresser Institute as well as additional training from ACNEM and AIMN. She is also a Recode 2.0 certified practitioner in preventing and reversing cognitive decline. She is a TGA-approved medicinal cannabis authorised prescriber for multiple indications and products.
