Dr Olivia Ly Lesslar

I practice all aspects of medicine, with an interest in complex conditions, mystery illnesses, prevention, bio-hacking and individualised medicine. I am not averse to short therapeutic runs of medications and supplements, but I focus on whole food, removing triggers and treating the underlying cause.

 

Because of time constraints and the depth to which I delve with my patients, I WILL NOT practice as your primary care physician/ GP. I will consult to you on the premise that you have a GP.  I DO NOT see patients on a rolling ongoing basis. I try to give you an in-depth, psychoneuroimmunology perspective on your chronic, complex condition, especially in the context of:

1) fertility, pregnancy, baby and early childhood optimisation, 2) atopy: asthma/ hay fever/ eczema, histamine intolerance, MCAS 3) longevity and anti-aging 4) cancer 5) neurodegenerative diseases 6) CFS/ME and CIRS 7) diet experimentation 8) SNP analyses 9) patients who have lost hope and are tired of adding yet more medications to control symptoms and who would like to explore treating the cause.  

 

I will listen to you and try my best to appreciate your health journey and help get you where you want to be. A good therapeutic relationship involves understanding hopes and fears, being realistic and, defining and managing expectations.

Generally speaking there are no magic pills and quick fixes. What effects real change is compassion, mindset, lifestyle and diet modification, judicious use of supplements and medication, and being kind to yourself. Take ownership and understand YOUR health, your body and the pressures you are subjected to.

 

I approach health from a realistic, whole-body perspective where the patient is a partner in their journey, with as much help and guidance from me as you are comfortable with. My assessments are rigorous, research-dense and fully referenced.
