HealthCARE
Since opening in 2004, Peninsula Herbal Dispensary has grown into one of
Australia’s biggest and most renowned herbal dispensaries. Encompassing an Acute Care Dispensary, a Naturopathic Clinic and a retail WELLstore, the Peninsula Herbal Dispensary is a busy hub of wellness, situated right in the heart of the Mornington Peninsula.
Who we are
Founded by Karen Jackson in 2004 and owned and directed by Carla Wrenn since 2015, Peninsula Herbal Dispensary & Naturopathic Clinic has grown from a much loved local dispensary into a leading naturopathic healthCARE community, supporting more than 5,000 people each year locally, Australia wide and internationally.
At our heart is a team of Naturopaths and a dedicated Care Team who care deeply about complementary medicine, better healthCARE and the community we serve. We believe exceptional care comes from combining knowledge and experience with genuine connection; creating a place where people feel known, supported and empowered in their health.
What we do
WELL Care is both our philosophy and the framework through which we deliver care. It reflects our belief that healthCARE should look beyond symptoms to understand the whole person; combine evidence with individualised care; educate and empower people to participate in their health; and focus not only on getting well, but on staying well and living better, longer.
We bring WELL Care to life through our Acute Care Dispensary, personalised 1:1 Naturopathic Consultations in-clinic and virtually and our Advanced Clinical Focus Naturopaths for more complex or specialised presentations. Beyond the consultation room, WELL Care extends into online workshops and webinars, practitioner articles, our upcoming WELL Care podcast, community education and engagement, we love creating more ways to learn, connect and proactively care for your health.
How we do it
Whole person. Evidence based. Structured. Personalised.
WELL Care gives our philosophy a clear clinical structure: Whole-Person Assessment & Goals, Evidence-Based & Empowering Care, Lifestyle Medicine in Action and Long-Term WELLbeing.
Depending on where you are in your health journey, this may include practitioner-led Acute Care, comprehensive health assessment, physical health measures, nutrition and lifestyle medicine, pathology and functional testing, personalised herbal and nutritional prescribing, clear Care Plans, and structured reviews with measurable outcomes and ongoing support.
Our vision is to move healthCARE beyond simply reacting to illness. We want to help people understand their health, intervene earlier, make informed choices and have the right level of support available as their needs change.
This is WELL Care — proactive, preventative and personalised healthCARE, designed to meet you where you are and help you live better, longer.
