The GIT Fellowship Program

​

The GIT Fellowship team currently consists of Dr. Jason Hawrelak, Dawn Whitten (Senior Partner) and Kate Rix (Senior Associate). All members of the GIT Fellowship team have been carefully selected by Dr. Hawrelak. These practitioners are guided and mentored by Dr. Hawrelak as needed, and he supervises the treatment of patients within the program. 

​

Senior Partners

​

Senior Partners work in a co-mentoring capacity with Dr. Jason Hawrelak in the GIT Fellowship Program. They provide supervision and mentoring to Associates and Senior Associates. Senior Partners have worked closely with Dr. Jason Hawrelak for many years including receiving his extensive mentoring and guidance. Senior Partners treat patients within the GIT Fellowship Program independently and expertly, although they have access to Dr. Hawrelak's guidance if required.

 

Dawn Whitten is our Senior Partner. She provides mentoring and supervision in her areas of experience including early life microbiome optimisation; women's health; thyroid health; infant and child gastrointestinal health and nutrition; pregnancy; breastfeeding and fertility.

Senior Associates

 

Senior Associates have completed a minimum two year mentorship period with Dr. Hawrelak, and have treated a minimum of 120 patients ongoing within the program while under Dr. Hawrelak's direct supervision and guidance. Senior Associates have completed all prescribed competencies, continue to receive Dr. Hawrelak's regular mentoring, and have access to his expert advice whenever needed. Senior Associates care for and provide treatment to their patients on a more independent basis as they are proficient and experienced in working within Dr. Hawrelak's paradigm of care and have an intricate knowledge and understanding of his treatment protocols.
