Special Services

Skin checks involve a systematic examination of the skin by a qualified GP to assess new, changing, or concerning spots.

The doctor considers individual risk factors such as skin type, personal and family history, and sun exposure, and may provide advice on skin health and prevention.

Where clinically appropriate, the GP may arrange monitoring, discuss management options, perform biopsies or removals, organise follow‑up, or refer to another medical practitioner for further assessment.

Patients are encouraged to raise any concerns or skin changes with their GP as part of their ongoing care.

Call or speak to reception to learn more or book an appointment.

Our Travel Health Services support patients to prepare for travel based on their destination, itinerary, medical history, and planned activities.

A travel health consultation may include individualised travel advice, a review of recommended or required vaccinations, and discussion of preventive measures to reduce common travel‑related health risks.

Where clinically appropriate, the GP may administer vaccines, prescribe medications, provide documentation, or arrange follow‑up and referral to another medical practitioner.

Advice and recommendations may vary between individuals, and patients are encouraged to discuss their specific travel plans and health concerns with their GP as part of their preparation for travel.

Call or speak to reception to learn more or book an appointment.

Minor surgical procedures are provided by trained general practitioners and are undertaken where clinically appropriate.

Our clinic offers a range of low‑risk procedures commonly managed in primary care, including laceration management, skin lesion biopsies and removals, excisions, curettage, wound repair, removal of cysts or ingrown toenails, and long‑acting reversible contraception (LARC) insertion and removal.

The GP will assess the patient’s medical history, discuss the nature of the procedure, potential risks, and aftercare requirements.

Follow‑up care, pathology review, or referral to another medical practitioner may be arranged where required.

Our Most Common Services

Standard GP Consultations

A standard GP consultation is designed to assess and manage a wide range of everyday health concerns. It commonly includes care for acute illnesses such as colds and flu, gastroenteritis and urinary tract infections, as well as follow‑up appointments to review test results or ongoing symptoms.

GPs also use these consultations to provide medication reviews and repeat prescriptions, arrange referrals to specialists, and request imaging or pathology when needed.

Importantly, standard consultations are where new or early signs of chronic conditions such as diabetes, asthma or high blood pressure are first identified and a management plan is discussed.

Chronic Condition Management

Chronic Condition Management focuses on supporting patients living with long‑term conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma, arthritis, and mental health comorbidities.

Through structured care plans, regular reviews and coordinated support with allied health and specialist services, GPs help patients monitor their condition, adjust treatments and address both physical and emotional health needs.

The aim is to improve quality of life, reduce complications, and provide continuity of care, so patients feel confident, informed and supported in managing their health over the long term.

Mental Health

Mental health identification and treatment focus on early recognition, compassionate care and ongoing support. GPs commonly identify concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress and adjustment difficulties during routine consultations and provide a safe, confidential space to talk about mental wellbeing.

Care may include the development of a GP Mental Health Treatment Plan, brief counselling and practical strategies, as well as referrals to psychologists, psychiatrists or other non‑GP specialist services when additional support is needed.

This coordinated approach helps patients access appropriate care, build coping strategies and improve their overall mental health and quality of life.

45 – 49 Years Health Assessments

A 45 – 49 Years Health Assessment is a preventive health check designed for people aged 45 – 49 who are at risk of developing chronic disease.

During the assessment, the GP reviews the patient’s medical and family history, lifestyle risk factors (such as smoking, diet, physical activity and alcohol use), and checks key measurements including blood pressure, weight and waist circumference.

The consultation may also involve assessing mental wellbeing and discussing early signs of conditions such as diabetes or cardiovascular disease. Based on the findings, the GP provides personalised advice, preventive strategies, referrals, or follow‑up care to help reduce future health risks and support long‑term wellbeing.

75+ Years Health Assessments

A 75+ Years Health Assessment is a comprehensive preventive check designed to support the health, independence and quality of life of older people.

The assessment looks at physical health, chronic conditions, medications, mobility, fall risk, vision and hearing, as well as cognitive function and mental wellbeing. It also considers social supports, daily functioning and home safety.

Based on the findings, the GP develops a personalised management plan, which may include preventive care, medication adjustments, referrals to allied health or community services, and regular follow‑up to help maintain overall health and wellbeing.

Child and Adolescent Health

Child and adolescent health focuses on supporting children and young people through all stages of growth and development.

GPs provide care for acute illnesses, ongoing conditions such as asthma or eczema, and support routine immunisations, developmental checks and school‑age health concerns.

Consultations may also address nutrition, sleep, physical activity, learning or behavioural issues, and emerging mental health or emotional wellbeing concerns, particularly during adolescence.

GPs work closely with families and, when needed, coordinate referrals to paediatricians, psychologists or allied health services to ensure children and adolescents receive age‑appropriate, holistic and ongoing care.

Women’s Health

Women’s health care focuses on comprehensive, compassionate, and confidential support across all stages of life.

We offer dedicated women’s health services, including cervical screening (often completed during a standard consultation), breast checks, reproductive and sexual health care, and menopause support.

GPs also provide pregnancy confirmation and antenatal shared care, contraception advice including IUD planning, and ongoing menopause management tailored to individual needs.

This holistic approach ensures women receive respectful, personalised care that supports their health and wellbeing from adolescence through to later life.

Men’s Health

Men’s health care focuses on prevention, early detection and proactive support for long‑term wellbeing.

We provide comprehensive men’s health services, including prostate cancer checks, cardiovascular risk assessments, reproductive and sexual health care, and personalised lifestyle support such as nutrition, exercise, weight management and smoking cessation.

GPs also help identify and manage common issues like fatigue, stress, mental health concerns and chronic conditions.

Our aim is to promote early detection, reduce future health risks, and support men to maintain their health and wellbeing at every stage of life through confidential, tailored care.

Asthma Management

Asthma management focuses on helping patients achieve good symptom control and maintain long‑term lung health.

We offer personalised assessment, diagnosis and ongoing management to help you breathe easier, with care tailored to your individual triggers and lifestyle.

Management includes regular reviews, inhaler technique checks, written asthma action plans, and adjustments to treatment as needed to reduce flare‑ups and prevent exacerbations.

Through education, monitoring and proactive care, GPs support patients to manage their asthma confidently and stay active and well.

Diabetes Assessments and Management

Diabetes assessment and management focuses on early detection, effective control and long‑term complication prevention.

We offer diabetes checks, diagnosis and ongoing management plans tailored to your individual needs, including blood glucose monitoring, medication review and lifestyle guidance.

GPs support patients with education, regular reviews and goal setting, and coordinate care with allied health professionals such as dietitians, diabetes educators and podiatrists when needed. This structured, team‑based approach helps you maintain stable health, reduce the risk of complications and confidently manage your diabetes over the long term.
