Dr Lucy Caratti
MBBS FRACGP, DCH, Integrative Medical Doctor, Women’s Health, Fertility, Nutritional & Environmental Medicine.
I am...
Constantly curious
I always ask questions, dig deep and spend time and effort understanding. Curiosity is what drives me.
Passionate & committed
My role is unique, and I am privileged to have the opportunity to get to know my patients and take on all aspects of their clinical care. I feel honoured to be a part of their journey and committed to finding the correct answers, so they have the best outcomes for their health and wellbeing.
A believer in the individual
A one size fits all approach is simple; the other is more complex but necessary. We are all different and to properly understand, diagnose and treat my patients, I tailor my treatments to the individual. The beauty of integrative medicine is the patient gaining the confidence and knowledge to embrace and enjoy every stage of life through personal autonomy of care.
Striving for balance
I believe life and pleasure walk hand in hand. When we deny ourselves pleasure, we are fundamentally limiting life. Finding the balance between the two is key to a long, healthy, and fulfilling journey.
Fascinated by the body
I am in awe of how the human body works and its intrinsic interconnections; a healthy mind makes your body work better, and a strong body improves mental wellbeing. The ability to stimulate the brain to generate good mind-body connections can result in better sleep, improved coordination, and less stress. It is endlessly fascinating and integral to optimum health and vitality.
Dedicated to a multidisciplinary approach
I am inclusive of all modalities with a sharp focus on the big picture. Incorporating all types of healthcare, like physiotherapy, naturopathy and osteopathy, alongside traditional medicine ensures patient-focused care to ensure the very best outcome.

Dr Lucy Caratti is a highly qualified Integrative Doctor with 15 years of clinical experience and an expert in women's health, particularly issues like menopause, gut health, metabolic diseases, and hormonal imbalances.
Forming a strong partnership between patient and doctor is integral to her approach: to look to the root cause of a problem rather than treat its symptoms. Combining her extensive medical knowledge with evidence-based integrative medicine training, she provides holistic management that empowers women to take control of their bodies and regain their health and vitality, no matter what stage of life.

She has also undergone further training in Child Health, treatment of SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth), IV Nutrition, and the biochemical imbalances and deficiencies associated with mental health conditions.
She is co-founder of WA charity Be Giving, which supports the Perth Children's Hospital, and co-founded Expand Wellbeing, a school programme that educates girls in health related issues. Dr Lucy participates in the Women’s Wellness Series that educates women on perimenopause, menopause and gut health, and was Medical Director at Scripte, where she assisted in formulating a range of natural sleep products.
