A vision
A leap of faith
A brand-new allied health clinic opening its doors to the community
Private Practice Medical Consulting had the absolute privilege of supporting Daniela Dusanovic and Rhys Jones in launching The Wholesome Clinic, now proudly operating at:
9 Lester Drive, Altona North VIC 3025.
Opening a healthcare practice is not just about passion it is about precision. It requires compliance, structured systems, integrated software, claiming pathways, secure digital access, and ensuring everything functions seamlessly before the first client walks through the door.
That is exactly what we delivered.
The Vision
The Wholesome Clinic was established to provide integrated psychology and exercise physiology services supporting both mental and physical wellbeing.
With a strong focus on neurodiversity, mental health, emotional resilience, and sustainable movement, Daniela and Rhys set out to create a space where care feels empowering, achievable, and genuinely personalised.
Their purpose was clear. Our role was to assist with the clinic opening.
The Setup Built Right From Day One
Private Practice Medical Consulting worked closely with the founders to ensure every essential system was professionally implemented, compliant, and fully integrated.
Our support included:
PRODA setup and secure digital access
HICAPS implementation for private health claiming
Halaxy integration and Configeration
Health insurance registrations and processing
Business Plan guidance and Budget Template Creation
These are not minor administrative tasks. They are critical business foundations that determine how efficiently a clinic operates, how smoothly claims are processed, and how confidently the practice can grow.
When systems are established correctly from the beginning, everything flows from Medicare access to private health claims, client management, and billing.
No last-minute scrambling. No compliance Uncertaintly. No operational gaps.
A clinic ready to operate with confidence from day one.
Supporting Allied Health Growth in Melbourne’s West
Seeing The Wholesome Clinic open its doors at 9 Lester Drive was a significant milestone. The practice now delivers integrated, evidence-based allied health services to the Altona community and Melbourne’s western suburbs.
We are proud to have supported Daniela and Rhys in turning their vision into a fully operational, compliant, and scalable practice.
Because launching a healthcare business should feel strategic and supported not overwhelming.
