Our Founders

At The Iron Infusion Clinic, we are a family-run practice founded on the belief that every patient deserves thoughtful, evidence-based, and genuinely patient-centred care. The clinic was established by husband-and-wife team Dr Joel Collins and Tegan Parker, who share a commitment to improving the recognition and management of iron deficiency across Australia.

Dr Joel Collins is a Consultant Clinical Haematologist with extensive experience managing blood disorders, including anaemias, abnormal blood counts, bleeding and clotting disorders, and blood cancers. Over many years of clinical practice, Joel developed a particular passion for iron deficiency, especially its under-diagnosis and under-treatment in women and children. He observed that many patients were told their iron levels were “normal” despite ongoing symptoms and clear clinical deficiency. This gap in care became the catalyst for creating a service focused not just on delivering iron infusions, but on understanding and addressing the underlying causes of iron deficiency.

Tegan Parker serves as General Manager, bringing a significant corporate and operational background across education and healthcare to the clinic. Her leadership ensures the service is efficient, patient-focused, and scalable, while preserving the values on which the clinic was founded.

The clinic’s origins began in Toowoomba, where patients and referring doctors valued the depth of specialist consultation and holistic approach. As demand grew and patients travelled long distances for care, the service expanded into Brisbane and the Gold Coast, while maintaining the same clinical standards and personalised approach despite the growth of our team.

Today, The Iron Infusion Clinic is one of Australia’s largest providers of iron infusion services, remaining firmly grounded in clinical excellence, trust, and compassionate care.
