Dr Matt Caratelli

Melbourne born and bred, Dr Matt grew up going to highschool at Elwood College. Having been adjusted since birth, Dr Matt came out of uni in 2017 bursting with energy, going as far north as Mount Isa, QLD (Australia’s largest mining town). After starting a practice from scratch up there for just over a year, Dr Matt wanted to bring the same quality of care back home.

Dr Matt’s focus is building a community of like-minded people for sustainable health practices. Having started Thrive in 2019 we like to think we achieved this despite the following 2 years of lockdowns. This eventually led to Dr Matt moving intestate in Dec ’21, while Dr Peter, Maddy and Nick looked after Thrive’s patients.
