Founding Doctor And Director. Past president of acnem
Dr Mark has worked in the field of ME/CFS for over 35 years, and is considered one of Australia’s leading practitioners in this area. He is currently President of the Australasian College of Nutritional & Environmental Medicine (acnem).
Dr Mark sees patients from around Australia and overseas with complex illnesses, including chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME), fibromyalgia (FM), chemical toxicity and sensitivities (MCS) and chronic inflammation.
Treatment usually starts with non-drug therapies, including diet, exercise and lifestyle change, moving on to specific, individualized therapeutic needs of each patient.

Sophie Thelosen
Clinical Nutritionist (ATMS)
Sophie is a Clinical Nutritionist registered with the Australian Traditional Medicine Society (ATMS), with a special interest in complex, persistent and difficult-to-diagnose presentations. She works as part of the integrative team alongside Dr Mark Donohoe and Dr Isobel Marr.
Sophie takes a clinical, investigative approach — focused on understanding what is actually driving symptoms, rather than applying standard protocols. Her work is particularly well suited to patients who have tried multiple approaches with limited success, or whose symptoms don't fit neatly into a single diagnosis.
Areas of Focus
Gut health, microbiome analysis, IBS and SIBO
Food, chemical and biochemical intolerances, including histamine and oxalate sensitivity
Chronic fatigue, low resilience and post-viral illness, including Long COVID and POTS
Difficulty tolerating supplements or medications
Blood sugar regulation, autoimmune and metabolic health
Her Approach
Sophie prioritises careful clinical reasoning and personalised planning over one-size-fits-all solutions. A key part of her work is helping patients simplify what they are already doing, understand what is relevant for their body, and focus on what will make the most meaningful difference.

Mr Digby
Resident Pooch
Mr Digby, our much-loved Maltese Cavalier poodle, was an important part of our patient care at MIM, and delighted, calmed and supported many a patient over his fifteen years of "work" with us.
Sadly, he passed away in 2025, but his spirit lives on with us here at MIM, and we miss him greatly.
Mr Digby made a name for himself chasing ducks on YouTube a while back. Over a million people have viewed the video on YouTube and Facebook, and it can be watched by clicking here
