About our Doveton service

Mobile Exercise Physiology in Doveton

Our base is in Dandenong North, so Greater Dandenong's suburbs are our closest and most regular visits. Our accredited exercise physiologist visits clients in Doveton (3177), usually only a few minutes from our Dandenong North base, so appointments are easy to fit in.

If you're coming home from Dandenong Hospital or Casey Hospital, we can carry on your rehabilitation at home. We can also involve interpreters for families who prefer another language. We see adults and older people with disability, chronic conditions and falls risk and build programs around what they want to get back to doing.

Example: A 19-year-old NDIS participant in Doveton with autism wants to join a local gym. Our EP visits the gym together, sets up a visual program and gradually fades support.
