We don’t just want you to be better. we want you to be well.

Bowwood Family Practice was founded by Dr Robynne Glasser and Dr Lauren Goliath, who were clinical partners at medical school and shared a long-held dream of opening a holistic health centre together in the Southern Suburbs. This practice was born out of a deep love for caring for the entire family unit, with a special emphasis on women and children, and a desire to create a true “home away from home” for our patients.

Our hope is to offer a safe and welcoming space where you can arrive, leave your cares at the door, and feel truly seen and heard. We aim to make even the biggest health concerns feel shared and manageable, and to empower you to become the ultimate expert on your own body and health.

We believe in journeying alongside you towards long-term wellness by addressing the root causes of health concerns, rather than simply treating symptoms. In a world of overwhelming health information, we also strive to help you navigate knowledge thoughtfully and confidently.

At Our Core, this is what we value

We’re Family Orientated

We care about building lasting relationships that extend beyond the individual. We want to know you and your family more personally, so that we can better serve you as your practitioners.

We’re Holistic & Comprehensive

We’re passionate about helping patients understand their health in a broader context, empowering them with knowledge, support, and care that honours their unique journey.

We’re women focused

We welcome and serve anyone who walks through our doors, but we’re really dedicated to the unique health needs and experiences of women. Advocating for women’s health with respect and understanding.

here to help you feel at home
