I may as well kill 5 birds with one stone. I need (/want) a dietician, an acupuncturist, a dermatologist, an allergist, and a remedial or shiatsu masseur. Know any good ones? Brisbane, Australia. (Yes—I am trying to make the most of my health insurance.)

Notes:

I live in the Indooroopilly area, but I don't mind travelling.
I don't have any particularly major health problems, I'd just like to take care of a few mild-moderate issues as well as improve/maintain my health in certain areas.
It'd be wonderful to know why you are making your recommendation, if you are so inclined. (e.g., is the doctor super clever, really nice, or surprisingly affordable?)

Dermatologist - Dr Jenny Byth, Wesley Medical Centre, Auchenflower. Fixed my acne when I was 16, earned my eternal gratitude, and I still see her 20 years later for skin cancer checks. Plus she has beautiful skin which I always think is a good advertisement. She's in the phone book.

Acupuncturist - Cecelia Yeung, Adelaide St, City. Pulled me up from the depths of a truly dreadful work-related bout of exhaustion, anxiety and misery. She's also a physio and helped fixed my crook lower back. A friend who was treated for depression recommended her to me and I reckon it's one of the best recommendations I've *ever* received. 3229 0028.

For max health insurance massage bang per buck, I used to go Ten O Min in Rowes arcade, cos they'll see you for 30 mins and they do great shiatsu. Phone ahead to make an appointment and let them know you need a receipt for your health insurance. 3221 5288.

Sorry I can't help with an allergist or dietitian.
