She holds the Diploma of Women’s Health through the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetrics and Gynaecologists (DRANZCOG) — a post-graduate qualification that reflects her commitment to specialist-level women’s health within general practice. Dr Janice understands that menopause is not a single event but a journey, and she takes the time to explore each patient’s individual experience, symptoms, and goals before developing a treatment plan tailored to them.

Incorporating Medical & Surgical Approaches

Dr Janice Kiem takes a comprehensive approach to weight management, working with each patient to find the most appropriate pathway for their individual circumstances — whether that is medical management, surgical intervention, or a combination of both.

For many patients, medically supervised weight loss is highly effective. Dr Janice is thoroughly trained in bariatric pharmacotherapy and utilises oral and injectable weight loss medications where clinically appropriate, tailoring treatment to each patient’s health profile, goals, and stage of life.

Where surgery is the right pathway, Dr Janice collaborates closely with esteemed bariatric surgeons in Brisbane. She supports patients through every stage of the surgical journey — from initial assessment and pre-operative preparation through to long-term post-operative care. 

Dr Janice understands that the decision to pursue weight loss treatment is deeply personal. She takes the time to explore all options with her patients, ensuring every person leaves with a plan they feel confident and supported in.
