Meet THE doctor
Dr Stephanie Grunberg, originally from New York, is a Medical Practitioner and Cannabis Clinician based on the Gold Coast, Queensland.
Dr Stephanie received her doctor of medicine degree from the University of Queensland in 2018. She has a background in a broad range of fields including biomedical research, archaeology and even scuba diving. She spent close to 4 years working in a prominent microbiology lab at the University of Pennsylvania, USA where she collaborated on research investigating the human gut microbiome. Her work investigated the role of host-microbe interactions in health and disease, an area that she still finds fascinating.
Dr Stephanie is passionate about integrative and alternative approaches to health and wellbeing. Her interests include women’s health, mental health and chronic disease. She believes in getting to the root causes that lead to disease and how factors such as lifestyle, nutrition, and plant medicines can be used to promote healing. Dr Stephanie believes in working alongside patients to empower them on their healing journey.
"Everyone has the ability to heal. You are your own medicine." - Dr Stephanie Grunberg
When it comes to plant medicines, she is a strong proponent of their use. She has seen first hand how they can help someone with a debilitating chronic disease regain their quality of life.
In her free time, Dr Stephanie loves being in nature with her partner. Whether it’s walking along the beach or hiking in the hinterlands, she will take any opportunity to soak up the beauty outdoors. She also loves cooking, traveling and curling up with a good book.
