Merge Health

I have just completed the Wellness Kickstarter program with amazing support and guidance from Steph G and Sarah B at Merge Health. The practitioners have provided professional health advice which was easy to follow in a very caring and holistic manner. The regular check ins were integral to ensuring the program was right for me, every step of the way. Thank you for cheering me along as I achieved my health goals. As well as losing 15 kg, I am enjoying much higher energy levels, better sleep and am virtually pain free.

I have consulted with Stephanie, Kate and other members of the Merge Health team over the last seven or so years in relation to optimal health. I have also attended Merge events and heard other practitioners speak. As well as offering a beautiful nurturing space, I always appreciate the depth of knowledge and specialisation the Merge Health team offers and their realistic, wholistic and integrative approach to wellness. Their online service, and being able to order vitamins online, are great additional services I really value. I highly recommend this passionate and knowledgeable integrative naturopathy business.

Highly recommend. Saw Sarah Bakker - very knowledgeable and the health plan she mapped out for me was easy to follow. After changing my diet and taking Basica, I feel so much better. My fatigue has lifted and I’m sleeping better, which of course helps my mood drastically. Thank you Sarah

I went to Merge Health because although I was eating relatively well (or so I thought) I just didn't feel quite right. I had serious energy level issues and was sleeping poorly.
My GP had a look at all of the bloods that I had done (as ordered by Merge Health) but could not see anything amiss and suggested perhaps it was simply premenstrual symptoms and or peri-menopause.
At Merge I was put onto a new diet with supplements that immediately saw an improvement in my energy levels.
Without going on and on what I will say is that I thought I was feeling ok, just perhaps a bit flat but I didn't realise how bad I was feeling until I started feeling better. I am now running 3 times a week (for the first time EVER).
I cannot recommend Merge Health more highly, the entire team are friendly and so supportive.

Professional, on point, practice with considered treatment therapies and strategies tailored to individual client. Highly recommend.

The team at Merge health have been nothing but amazing! I've not seen a naturopath before, who could hone in on the problem so quickly, and come up with an effective plan to help my health. Could not recommend them more!

Merge Health is a fantastic clinic for those who are seeking functional medicine practitioners who incorporate a holistic approach with various modalities. I personally have seen Kate McCandles for years, her expertise are amazing and she works hard to find the correct solutions. If you are sick and Doctors can't find the answers. I highly advise you to get another opinion at Merge. The amount you will learn about your body, lifestyle choices, body upgrading options etc makes every consult worth every dollar. If you need to optimise your health - this is truly the place to go to. Don't know where I would be without Kate- outstanding, supporting and continuous upskilling practitioner!

Merge Health is an amazing place to get your health and well-being back on track. I’ve enjoyed my sessions with Kate the nutritionist/naturopath. She’s very supportive, knowledgeable and understanding of my issues and concerns. I highly recommend the team here!

Kate, Steph and the team are wonderful, they take extra time and consider all possible influences affecting your health. The Merge health team are passionate about natural health and leave no stone unturned in reaching your highest health achievement. I started using Merge when I was diagnosed with Ceoliac Disease and wasn’t seeing improvement with just following a gluten free diet. Kate was able to quickly get my health back on track so I could begin healing. I still regularly use merge for any health concerns that arise. I highly recommend Merge health for no matter what stage your health is at.

Kate is the most incredible and talented person! Her consultations are so thorough and she genuinely cares about her client’s health and well being! Her goal is for you to be your best self and have your health optimally functioning! I’ve had 2 consultations so far and I have already obtained an enormous amount of insightful knowledge about my health. I highly recommend Merge Health!

The Nautropath’s are incredibly talented and really listened to what I had to say and all of my symptoms. They were really sympathetic and caring. However, on every single occasion, whether it be a consult, purchasing supplements etc, I was overcharged or told the wrong price. Not going to name names, however 2 staff members told me something would cost $150, then I was charged $275 and told it was that price all along. After my first consult and purchasing a supplement, I was overcharged $18. Every single time, I’ve had to ring and request refunds or ask as to why I have been charged an amount different to what had been discussed me. I was always ‘in the wrong’ despite my husband listening to these conversations and the prices discussed. Very lovely staff members, however it was grossly overpriced and because of the constant miscommunication and mix ups with pricing, I won’t return.

Lovely staff, great customer service. Knowledgeable practitioners that listens to you and bring results quickly.

The entire team at merge are extremely caring and helpful and have suported me through my journey back from terrible long term health issues to good health. Kate is the most knowledgeable person on all things health i have ever meet and i am very grateful for all her hard work thankyou

Merge Health has been the most supportive clinic I’ve ever been to. I’ve seen Kate McCandless, Dr Wesley Ang and Stephanie Gadston. They’re all great practitioners who really cared and gave me treatments that have helped me feel well after I had been feeling off for a few months. The process of starting treatment and consultations was really easy thanks to Sarah who is the Patient Advocate. Sarah answered all my questions with so much grace and she helped me get set up in the patient portal so that I could get updates from my practitioners really quickly. I highly recommend Merge Health if you’re wanting to feel well again. Stephanie and Kate are really grounded and down-to-earth practitioners, I really appreciate everything they have done.

I have been working with Steph (Naturopath) and Oscar (Chinese Medicine Dr) for a year now and they have been a fundamental part of my recovery and healing journey from CFS and getting me back to the point where I feel like I am myself again. They were the first to acknowledge that something was actually wrong and I felt so relieved to finally have some answers for what was going on. I am so grateful for their help, support and expertise. THANK YOU! The service is expensive and not something I could have done without the support of my family, but it has been so worth it after seeing how much I have progressed.

I was unable to attend and by the time i called, they had already taken out the full $275 from my account without notifying me at all. They were not willing to return my money even when i explained my situation. I think this is very unfair practice.

Just completed my Wellness Kickstarter. Couldn't love it any more! Really happy with the team at Merge Health.:)

Thank you for being so awesome! I recently attended some of your workshops and also did a 'Wellness Kickstarter'. The Wellness Kickstarter was a great introduction into your services and I learned heaps about my health. Looking forward to learning more.

WARNING - Do not go to Merge for the advice of their GP’s. They have two and both are shockingly poor. Inaccurate record keeping, insensitive bedside manner, very poor communication, lazy in their practice- neither of them reviewed my patient history which is the whole purpose of going to an integrative practice. And today when I was referred to a specialist (which I had to specify myself- apparently they don’t know any Gastroenterologists themselves) I found basic errors in the referral documentation they wrote. I am unsure as to how they are continued to be allowed to practice.

Jad Patrick- one of their Natropaths has been fantastic and I highly recommend.

My personal experience dealing with Steph & the rest of the crew @ Merge over the past year has been a very positive one. With a wealth of knowledge across a range of fields I can definitely recommend them to anyone looking to improve their health & wellbeing.

Thank you!
