Healesville Medical Centre is delighted to welcome Dr. Nermin Faltas to their established healthcare team, bringing specialised expertise in women’s health and integrative medicine to the local community. Her arrival means residents of Healesville and surrounding areas now have access to comprehensive healthcare approaches that prioritise treating the whole person, not just symptoms.
Dr. Faltas brings an impressive healthcare journey that began with her graduation from the University of Alexandria in 1996 with a Bachelor of Medicine and Surgery. Her passion for women’s health led her to specialise in Obstetrics and Gynaecology, earning her diploma in 2004. In 2005, she made the significant move to Australia, where she dedicated herself to achieving her AMC qualifications, completing them in 2009.
Her commitment to providing the best possible patient care hasn’t stopped there – she has earned a Diploma in Integrative Medicine, reflecting her belief in treating patients holistically by considering their physical, emotional, and lifestyle factors together. This continuous learning reflects her dedication to staying at the forefront of medical advances to better serve her patients.
What makes Dr. Faltas’s arrival particularly valuable for the Healesville community is her comprehensive approach to women’s health and general practice. Drawing on her extensive obstetrics and gynaecology background, she provides specialised care for women’s health concerns throughout all life stages, from adolescence through menopause and beyond. Her integrative medicine training allows her to consider conventional medical treatments alongside lifestyle factors, nutrition, and preventive care approaches. This means patients receive treatment plans that address not only immediate health concerns but also focus on long-term wellness and disease prevention. Dr. Faltas has particular expertise in specialised obesity management, which she views as a crucial area for preventing chronic diseases that can significantly impact quality of life. Her approach combines medical intervention with lifestyle counselling and ongoing support to help patients achieve sustainable health improvements.
Dr. Faltas takes a refreshingly personal approach to healthcare, with particular interests in women’s health, skin problems, acne treatment, and weight management. She believes strongly that obesity management is crucial for preventing chronic diseases that can significantly impact quality of life. Beyond her professional expertise, Dr. Faltas is a devoted mother to two boys and enjoys music, reading, and swimming – interests that help her connect with patients on a personal level and understand the importance of maintaining work-life balance for overall wellbeing.
Dr. Faltas’s addition to Healesville Medical Centre significantly strengthens their commitment to providing comprehensive healthcare services to the local community. Patients interested in accessing her services can contact Healesville Medical Centre directly on 5962 4379 to arrange appointments and learn more about the treatments now available locally.
