Dr Tendek’s areas of interest include:
- Women’s health
- Men’s health
- Menopause

Lyn believes that integrative medicine has a unique role in both prevention of illness and restoration to well being and recognises the body’s own ability to heal itself provided the cornerstone lifestyle factors are addressed- diet, exercise, sleep, stress and purpose.
It is the integrative practitioner’s challenge and privilege to partner with the patient in their journey to healing, health and wellness.
