Areas of care
Dr Kennedy provides specialist internal medicine consultations across three core areas — each approached with thoroughness, compassion, and a commitment to practical, sustainable outcomes.
Obesity & metabolic health
Specialist-led care for sustainable weight management and metabolic health — including insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes prevention, and the use of modern GLP-1 and incretin therapies. Dr Kennedy takes a holistic approach that integrates medical treatment with lifestyle and nutrition.
Menopause & women's hormonal health
Expert, personalised support for women navigating perimenopause and menopause — including hormonal health, energy, cognition, mood, sleep, and metabolic changes. Dr Kennedy understands the complexity of this transition and takes it seriously.
Complex chronic syndromes
Thoughtful, evidence-informed care for long COVID, ME/CFS, POTS, MCAS, and other post-viral and neuroimmune conditions — conditions that are often dismissed or poorly managed elsewhere.
