Meet a Provider

Renae Meilak, Victoria

What do you like most about your job?

I enjoy meeting new people from various cultures and listening to their stories. I get the opportunity to interact with so many different people and they teach me a lot. I also enjoy that I get to travel and see rural towns that I otherwise would have never visited.

What would you say to someone who is unsure about whether they should come and see you for treatment or advice?

I would encourage people who are unsure to just book in and have a chat. I believe there is always something we can improve on to prevent the risk of injury. This could be your strength, flexibility or knowledge surrounding your health.

How can workplaces get the most of you?

I encourage workplaces to ensure the list is full and minimise the amount of missed appointments throughout the day. This ensures that patients are receiving consistent care and gives them the best opportunity to recover from their injuries as quickly as possible. 

I would also encourage the site contact to make time for a face-to-face debrief/check-in at the end of the day. This allows the site contact to be aware of what is going on in the treatment room and allows the opportunity to ask any clarifying questions regarding our recommendations. 

How do you stay healthy?

I enjoy walking, running, and participating in public events like fun runs and triathlons. I often go for walks with my friends to have coffee and catch up.
