Dr Kelly Francis

Meet Dr Kelly Francis

For more than 20 years, Dr Kelly Francis has helped children and adults navigate complex chronic health conditions through an integrative, evidence-informed approach.

Dr Kelly has a special interest in supporting patients with autism, ADHD, PANS/PANDAS, MCAS, POTS, neuroimmune conditions, chronic inflammation, gastrointestinal disorders and complex chronic illnesses. She also has a strong interest in preconception, pregnancy and family health.

My Approach

I believe health challenges are rarely caused by a single factor. By understanding the interactions between genetics, immune function, nutrition, environment and lifestyle, we can uncover the factors contributing to illness and create personalised strategies that support healing and long-term wellbeing.

My goal is not simply to manage symptoms, but to help patients and families better understand their health, identify the drivers of illness, and move forward with clarity and confidence.

Experience & Training

Dr Kelly graduated from the University of New South Wales with a Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) and completed her General Practice training in 2006.

Over the past two decades she has undertaken extensive postgraduate education in integrative and functional medicine, nutritional and environmental medicine, microbiome science, genetics and nutrigenomics. She is a member of the Australasian College of Nutritional and Environmental Medicine (ACNEM) and is currently undertaking Fellowship training through the Medical Academy of Paediatric Special Needs (MAPS), with a focus on complex paediatric conditions.

Throughout her career, Dr Kelly has worked with thousands of patients seeking answers for chronic health concerns that often involve multiple body systems and require a broader, more personalised approach to care.

Outside the Clinic

Outside medicine, Kelly enjoys snowboarding in Japan, playing pickleball, walking her dog, sauna and cold immersion, and spending time with family and friends.
