Dr Sonic Searle began his journey in healthcare with a Bachelor of Science at the University of Melbourne, where he majored in neuroscience and physiology, with the original intention to pursue a degree in medicine. Dealing with some health issues of his own, he derived great benefit from Chinese medicine which led him to pursue further studies in Chinese Medicine.

In 2018, he spent time living and studying in China, immersing himself in the cultural roots of the traditional practice. The following year, he completed an internship at the Tzu Chi Hospital in Taiwan, working in their Integrative Medicine Department. This experience was transformative, as it allowed him to see how Eastern and Western medical approaches can work together to provide comprehensive care.
