Who we are

NDIS Allied Health Support with caring hand

We began V-Well Allied Health through speech pathology, but it was never only about one profession. From the start, our vision has been bigger: to create a place where care feels personal, empowering, and human, for families and for the clinicians who support them.

We saw families who needed more than therapy sessions; they needed guidance, understanding, and connection. We also saw clinicians who wanted more than a job; they wanted to feel valued, supported, and part of something meaningful.

V-Well was created to bring those needs together.

Today, we provide allied health services across the lifespan, from children taking their first steps in communication, to adults rebuilding skills, to older people needing safe and dignified mealtimes. As we grow, we are welcoming other disciplines into the V-Well family, building a truly collaborative model of care.

Founder’s Story

Vanessa Chan, founder and director of V-Well Allied Health. There are three brands under V-Well Allied Health, including Swallowing and Dysphagia Support, First Words Together, and Vanessa Chan Speech Pathology. She has years of clinical experience.

V-Well Allied Health began with me, working as a speech pathologist across homes, schools, and aged care. I loved supporting people, but I also saw the gaps, families often felt alone, and clinicians sometimes felt isolated and stretched.

I knew there had to be a better way.

V-Well was created to bring people together: families who deserve care that feels personal, and clinicians who deserve a workplace where they feel supported, connected, and proud of their work.

What started with just me has grown into a team and a vision much larger than one person. Today, V-Well is home to services across the lifespan, from children learning to communicate, to adults rebuilding confidence, to older people enjoying safe and dignified mealtimes. And this is just the beginning.

At its heart, V-Well is about connection and meaningful work. My journey began alone, but the future of V-Well is about building something bigger,

together.
