Lez is well known for his work in musculoskeletal health, fertility, pregnancy, and birth preparation. He is always curious about the role of food as medicine and how positively exercise can impact our health. His compassionate, evidence-based approach has supported hundreds of families through all stages of life—from preconception and pregnancy to pain management and emotional wellbeing.
A passionate educator and community advocate, Lez has facilitated relationships with the Flinders birth unit, participated as a clinician in the University of Western Sydney’s IVF protocol research, and co-presented “Your Birth Blueprint.” In 2024, he further deepened his commitment to community leadership by participating in the Kangaroo Island Fleurieu Future Leaders Programme.
For over 15 years, Lez has led a local men’s bootcamp at Silver Sands Beach, cultivating strength, connection, and wellbeing in the community. Through this camp, he has mentored men of all ages, guiding them through challenging life phases and fostering a strong sense of support and resilience.
