New owners for chiropractic practice
After almost 30 years in business and assisting more than 5000 families in the Southern Highlands, John and Melinda Stewart have officially handed over the reins to their Stewart Chiropractic practice in Bowral to new owners. Dr Glen Lehane and Danielle Booth relocated to Bowral from Bathurst three weeks ago and in this time have been busy seeing patients and getting to know the community. Dr Glen said that he and Danielle were excited about the opportunity to own their own a practice in the highlands, but appreciated they had an enormous challenge ahead in continuing the reputation for quality care that John and Melinda had established in the community.
"John had met a number of prospective buyers when he made the decision to sell and relocate to Queensland, but I think it was our shared philosophy towards supporting patients to recover from pain without drugs; and to educating patients about the various factors that can impact your ability to live well naturally, that made John realise he could trust that his patients and his business would be in good hands with Danielle and I," Dr Glen said.
