Gemma

Customer Support

Your first interaction with Seasons Allied Health is usually the lovely, and warm Gemma who provides our clients with support in booking, scheduling appointments, and so much more! Those who have interacted with Gemma know that she is always willing to go above and beyond for our clinicians and clients and supports the clinic to run smoothly behind the scenes.

Outside of work Gemma and her family own a hobby farm and spend their weekends on the land and caring for their animals. Life is full of joy and energy with two fiery redheaded girls, whom she says have taught her patience, listening, and understanding qualities that are invaluable in both parenting and her professional life.

We are so grateful for you Gemma.

Augie comes into the clinic usually in the afternoons and provides a wonderful support and service for our visitors.
