Celebrating Spring

/0 Comments/in , , /by

As part of the excitement for the Spring Racing Carnival, Caribbean Park gave away little gifts of individually wrapped roses and piccolo bottles of sparkling wine today. There were special notes inserted into 24 of the roses which acted as tickets into the Caribbean Park Melbourne Cup Sweep.

Thank you to all the businesses from around the park that came to be part of the celebration. After setting up a table full of roses and an esky full of champagne we successfully gave away the entire lot in 15 minutes. We apologise for underestimating the numbers for this event however, it’s a great lesson to learn and we certainly appreciate the activity it creates for Caribbean Park.

Congratulations to those who received an entry into the Melbourne Cup Sweep and best of luck!

New GP Service at Caribbean Park

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

Dr McPherson is now available for bookings at Merge Health onsite at Caribbean Park.

About Dr Marina McPherson:

Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of SurgeryFellow of Royal Australian College of General Practitioners Bachelor of Science (Biomedical)

I am a General Practitioner with over 10yrs experience. I completed my medical training at Flinders University in 2005 and after obtaining my FRACGP, I have trained further with Australasian College of Nutritional and Environmental Medicine (ACNEM) as part of my special interest in Integrative Medicine.

Integrative medicine is a philosophy of healthcare that combines the knowledge and practices of Western medicine together with evidence-based complimentary therapies to enable each person to reach their optimal health potential. This approach involves a holistic view of the person, addressing their physical, emotional and spiritual concerns.

A special focus is placed on lifestyle and diet as this forms the foundation of health and well-being. As part of a multidisciplinary clinic, I am able to refer to my colleagues and other health care professional, as required, to reach the best outcome for the patient. I first became interested in Integrative medicine after the birth of my first child. Since then, I have practiced passionately in this way, which I find to be so much more rewarding for both my patients and myself.

My special interests include but are not limited to optimization of health, vitality and well-being, children’s health, women’s health, thyroid conditions, gastrointestinal conditions and allergies/asthma/eczema. I live in the stunning Dandenong Ranges and when I am not working, I am spending time with my beautiful children, gardening, knitting and doing the general young family jazz.
