This is Sarah. Our kind, approachable and always empathetic general practitioner.
Sarah has been a general practitioner for almost a decade but was inspired to join the Balalis team and work within the weight, diet and lifestyle management space because of the impact she feels it makes and how rewarding it can be. She loves witnessing people’s health and wellbeing improvements—from joint pain reduction to lowered blood pressure, increased sleep, better moods, and more.
Sarah is experienced in managing the complex physical, mental and emotional challenges people face on their weight management journeys. Her approach to care is always empathetic, understanding, and tailored to her patient’s circumstances and goals.
When not at work, Sarah can usually be found caring for her young family. Her ideal day off work would involve a morning visit to the markets, followed by some beach time with family. She also enjoys gardening, Pilates and live music. You might be surprised to learn also that Sarah is a keen fisherwoman.
