Heather Dowsett joined DPV Health, in 2020, where she started with driving the mini buses and supporting the social support team with client pick up and drop off and occasional outings. During the peak of the pandemic she also put her hand up to support and assist with hamper making on the Foodlink Program. Fast forward to 2021 she is now supporting the Healthy Mothers Healthy Babies team with picking up donated baby goods from an organization called “St Kilda Mums” and making contactless door to door deliveries to expected mothers who are struggling to make ends meet.
Dr Noor Altamimi
Dentist at DPV Health
I started working as a general dentist at DPV Health in 2015. I treat patients from different cultural backgrounds and age groups. I can speak Arabic and therefore help many of our refugee patients. I enjoy performing root canal treatment for my patients when they need it. I love and enjoy my role at DPV Health as I get the opportunity to look after many patients and help the community!
Nimesha Jayakody
Paediatric Speech Pathologist and ECIS Integration Lead at DPV Health
As a Speech Pathologist, I support a broad and diverse range of children. I am passionate about empowering families, educators and the wider community. I am also in the School Readiness Team whereby my unique role is to provide allied health training sessions, mentoring and coaching support to build the capacity of Kindergarten Teachers. I am looking forward to making a greater difference this year within the Early Childhood Intervention Service team as the new Integration Lead.

I have been an Exercise Physiologist for over six years and my role as an EP gives me immense satisfaction in looking after clients with different cultural backgrounds with a lot of health issues ranging from chronic pain, heart issues, chronic lungs problems. I love prescribing safe exercise programs as well as running group programs to help people achieve their goals. I also assist clients with transitioning and integrating them to community programs at DPV Health.
