Meet Dr Sharna-keely

Principal chiropractor
Chiropractic care is beneficial for everyone—not just those with “bad backs.” This is the guiding philosophy of Dr. Sharna-keely West, the Lead Chiropractor at Forward Chiropractic.

With over 35 years of experience, Dr. Sharna has helped countless patients and brings a wealth of expertise to her practice. She has worked extensively as an associate in Melbourne-based practices, served as a locum across Australia, and successfully ran her own clinic for 15 years.

Dr. Sharna’s approach centers on understanding each patient's unique health needs and delivering compassionate, honest, and patient-focused care. As she puts it, “I’m here to help you achieve your personal health goals, whatever they may be.”

Dr. Sharna-keely looks forward to getting to know the Kensington community and supporting the health of its members.
