Who is WHAM?

WHAM is a private mobile Exercise Physiology (EP) and Dietetics business that aims to provide patient centred plans catering to the needs and wants of individuals in a way that is meaningful to them. This means we want to think flexibly about the person's care and ensure that we keep them engaged through our interventions and with our own enthusiasm about helping them achieve their goals.

We are a small team who values integrity and transparency above all else. We do this by maintaining open and clear lines of communication with all members of the team.

We are passionate about healthcare and know it comes in many forms, and is best achieved through a collaborative approach with a common goal. This is supported by our vision of being an interdisciplinary team, currently focused on our Dietetics and Exercise Physiology domains. We are expanding our care team to include other allied health professionals to support our clients. We pride ourselves on maintaining regular contact with external agencies in the area to ensure our shared clients get the best benefit from multiple practitioners.

For the right person, WHAM offers flexible working arrangements as part of a small dedicated team.
