WELLBEING CENTRE

Wellness has a new name, Ishana.

SPECIALIST PAEDIATRICS

Newcastle's newest specialist centre.

Ishana means “the power within”. All of us hold within us the power of the universe. Everything within and around us is subtly connected through this energy. The main aim of our wellness centre is to help you to unlock your inner potential and no matter what life challenges, you have this inner strength to get through them.

The centre was established in 2019 with a vision to provide holistic model of health care which ascertains timely intervention support to children and young people with medical and developmental needs.The practice was different from a traditional specialist practice in that it encompasses not only the principles of physical well being but looks at the emotional , mental and spiritual well being of the individual.

At Ishana, we provide a warm, welcoming calm space for children with developmental and behavioural challenges. The colour theme and the ambience chosen for the practice and the waiting room was keeping in mind the diverse needs of our community in terms of their cultural background, ethnicity, gender preferences and socio economic status. We regularly train our staff and advocate for inclusivity and non judgemental attitude from all our staff where every individual is made to feel welcome and included.

We welcome you with open arms to Ishana, a place you can trust.

Our Vision

Our vision is to have a multidisciplinary paediatric specialist service and to create a model to provide comprehensive care to children and young people with developmental and behavioural problems. Among our current core group of clinicians we have regular peer review discussions to share our knowledge, experiences and learn from each other.

We advocate and believe in teamwork, mutual respect, integrity and compassionate care. We follow these principles within our team and in the care we provide to the families we serve.

We treat you with respect and expect you to treat us with respect in return. Any form of verbal abuse or aggression will not be tolerated in the practice or over the phone.

So if you are a specialist or an allied health professional and hoping to join our excellent team of competent clinicians, just drop us a line or give us a call. We would love to have a chat and see how we can work together collaboratively to achieve best outcome for our children and communities.
