Biography ~ Klinic Sophia

         Mark Sean O'Meadhra ASM

Warm greetings I am the principle practitioner at Klinic Sofia. I began my medical career in 1990 as an ambulance officer serving in Victoria and later South Australia. After graduating with a Bachelor of Health Science I was employed for many years as an intensive care paramedic. During this time I was awarded the Australian Service Medal (ASM) for emergency duty as a paramedic.

Following over a decade of ambulance field work, I commenced new employment at Flinders University as a faculty lecturer. I applied for medical school in 2001 and successfully graduated with a Bachelor of Surgery & Bachelor of Medicine. During my student studies I was awarded a scholastic scholarship for ‘outstanding academic merit’ in the field of medicine.  Following hospital training I began work at The Melbourne Therapy Centre as an integrative GP and commenced post graduate studies in Anthroposophic medicine. This training required mentorship and overseas study at clinics and hospitals in India, Germany and finally Switzerland for accreditation as an Anthroposophic physician.

After a decade of working as an Anthroposophic doctor in Melbourne I moved to coastal NSW and was employed as an integrative GP at the Bellingen Healing Centre.  In 2021 during the COVID pandemic I decided to retire as a doctor from mainstream medicine. I now serve as a private health consultant at Klinic Sophia in addition to helping my partner Sophie manage her Steiner day-care.  In my time off when I am not building my castle, gardening or trying to write my book, I have three demanding Kelpie/Collies in my face.

For most of my life I have involved myself in professional medical service.  Over this time I have acquired the knowledge and experience to offer trustworthy advice regarding the contemporary management of disease.  In addition I have undertaken significant post graduate training in prescribing a wide range of natural medicines.  My hope in establishing Klinic Sophia is to employ my knowledge to provide the wisdom and freedom for an individual to follow their own heart back to sovereign wellbeing.
