Meet our practitioners

Westside osteopathy is a group of independent practitioners who share a passion for helping people. We combine many years of clinical experience with a committment to ongoing professional education.

He has completed post graduate studies in America and the UK and also has a Masters degree in Medical Science. Graham runs a general practice where he treats everyone from babies to sports professionals. He has an interest in treating postural problems, headaches, sports injuries, back pain and chronic conditions. He does not believe in restricting his practice to one or two techniques. He likes to get to know his patients and often treats whole families. His professional appointments have included:

Office Manager: Marion Sanders

Marion keeps things running smoothly and everyone organised. Chances are she will be the first smiling face you will encounter at the clinic.

She is also a masters level triathlete and has a last name suspiciously similar to Graham….. could it be? Yes, in fact they are.
