Dr Bhavani Jayabalan
Menopause Specialist Doctor
Dr. Bhavani is an experienced General Practitioner and women’s health advocate who has dedicated more than fifteen years to holistic, patient-centred medical care. Having practiced in the Illawarra for ten years and previously as a specialist family physician in Singapore for five years, she has developed broad expertise across both chronic disease management and acute care. Throughout her career, she has guided countless patients through complex health conditions with compassion, clarity, and a deep respect for individual experiences.
A firm believer that every patient is an expert in their own body, Dr. Bhavani is committed to patient-centred care and shared decision-making. She works collaboratively with each patient to ensure their concerns are heard and their treatment plan is tailored to their health goals.
Dr. Bhavani recognised that menopause care has become a “minefield”—shaped by social and mass media instead of research and clinical expertise. Coupled with stigma surrounding women’s health, these barriers have left many women feeling confused, unsupported, or dismissed. Her goal in establishing the Menopause Wellness Hub is to provide a safe, evidence-based, and dedicated space for women seeking clarity and confidence during perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.
Dr Bhavani Jayabalan runs menopause clinics at Ochre Medical Centre Level 1, 51 Crown street Wollongong on Tuesday and Saturday afternoons.
