Our Story

Biotide Studio is clinician-owned and operated. Not a franchise, not a platform. A medical practice built by clinicians who wanted to do things properly.

Every consultation is led by an AHPRA-registered doctor who knows your name, your history and your goals. Where possible, you see the same doctor every time. That continuity is not incidental,  it is the point. It is how trust and a therapeutic relationship is built where we work with you to meet your goals. 

We are offering secure telehealth consultations currently, and will soon have in person consultations and treatments available at our St Kilda Studio -  so care fits around your life. What never changes is the standard.
