Appointments are highly recommended and preferred, whilst walk-in patients may need to wait.
Our doctors do NOT discuss results over the phone and a follow-up appointment will have to be made in order to discuss them with the doctor. This is to ensure confidentiality and maintain the best quality of care. We notify patients as soon as we receive your results. If the results are urgent, our receptionist will specify.

Areas assessed may include but are not limited to lifestyle, mobility, medication, nutrition, exercise, safety in the home, care arrangements and support networks.
Children’s health checks include monitoring development and normal milestones, immunisation and health promotion. A through health check can assess readiness for school and provide an opportunity for early screening for visual acuity, hearing, coordination as well as motor skills and other areas of development.
The Childhood Immunisations are an important part of keeping kids well and protecting against a range of preventable diseases and infections. All immunisations are administered by experienced GPs, who can also provide catchup schedules for children newly arriving in Australia or have missed immunisations.
Women’s healthcare may include but is not limited to regular PAP screening, breast checks, referral for mammography, family planning options, contraception, fertility counselling and management of menopause. Lifestyle plays an important role in all women’s lives, with healthcare focused on prevention to maintain optimum health.
Women are more susceptible to certain illnesses or conditions at different stages of their life and require checks accordingly. For example, you’re more likely to experience depression in your 20s, weight problems in your 30s and 40s, high blood pressure, diabetes and heart disease in your 50s.
