@seemamaharaj
I deliver patient-centred medical care and virtual GLP-1 health coaching grounded in behaviour change and functional medicine.
What I'm looking for
I provide patient-centred medical care and health coaching informed by over 19 years of clinical experience across South Africa and Ireland.
At Fella Health, I coach US and UK clients in GLP-1 weight-loss programmes, using Motivational Interviewing, psychological support, progress tracking, and virtual coaching tools to support sustainable behaviour change.
In private practice and at Skin Renewal Clinics, I have delivered functional medicine consultations, chronic disease management, weight-loss support, IV therapy, Biopuncture, bio-identical hormone care, and health coaching.
My GP experience includes acute presentations, long-term wellness strategies, insurance medicals, nursing-home ward rounds, and comprehensive patient management. I also bring an interest in coding and software development, with JavaScript, Python, and HTML/CSS training.
