DR. SHEENA WEEKES, MBBS, PG Cert BMVC
General Practitioner | Advocate for Non-Invasive, Patient-Centered Care
I’m Dr. Sheena Weekes, a dedicated general practitioner with a special interest in medical cannabis and other non-invasive treatment options. With over ten years of experience in clinical practice, I’ve witnessed the profound impact that personalized, holistic care can have on a person’s health, well-being, and quality of life.
My approach to medicine is rooted in empathy, education, and evidence. While conventional treatments certainly have their place, I believe many patients benefit from alternative strategies — especially when facing chronic conditions like persistent pain, anxiety, sleep disorders, and stress-related illnesses. In these cases, standard medical interventions may be insufficient, or may lead to unwanted side effects. That’s where thoughtful, non-invasive therapies can play an important role.
I take pride in offering a compassionate, judgment-free space where patients can explore their options with clarity and confidence. My goal is to empower you through individualized care plans that reflect your unique needs, lifestyle, and long-term health goals.
