Our senior Chiropractor, Dr Phillip Chiem, graduated with both his Bachelors in Health Science (Chiro) and his Masters of Clinical Chiropractic from Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology University in 2015, and achieved an outstanding award for Clinical Excellence during his final year. Following his education, he ventured to rural South Australia, where he compassionately served the rural and remote communities across 8 different remote clinics for 2 years. Now, back in Melbourne with over a decade of experience in the Allied Health Industry, Dr Chiem is eager to provide Chiropractic Care to Tarneit locals and the surrounding western suburbs of Melbourne, Victoria.

His clinical background encompasses the spectrum of musculoskeletal complaints, addressing issues ranging from low back pain, neck pain, postural concerns, headaches/migraines, vertigo, sciatica, to sports injuries and performance optimisation.
