Frequently Asked Questions
What do “health checks & advice” include at your clinic?
We offer GP health reviews focused on prevention—risk assessment, medication review, screening that may be due (e.g., skin checks), and travel health advice/vaccinations. Your GP personalises this to your age and history.
Who should book a health check?
Anyone can book, especially if it’s been a while since your last check, you have a family history or risk factors, you’re starting new medicines, or you’re planning travel. We’ll advise what’s appropriate for you.
What happens during a health check?
We’ll review your medical and family history, blood pressure and other measurements, current medicines, and which screenings or vaccines are recommended for your stage of life. Follow-up plans are agreed with you.
Do you do skin checks?
Yes—skin checks are part of our preventive care. If we find anything concerning, your GP will advise on next steps.
Can you review my medicines?
Yes. Your GP can perform an in-clinic medication review and, where appropriate, organise a Home Medicines Review (HMR) with a pharmacist to help optimise safety and use.
Do you provide travel health advice and vaccinations?
Yes—book a travel consult to discuss destination risks, vaccine needs and timing. Selected travel vaccines are available onsite.
Are targeted health assessments available (e.g., mid-40s, 75+)?
Yes. We offer targeted health assessments (such as 45–49 years, Type 2 diabetes risk evaluations, 75+ assessments, and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health checks). We’ll confirm eligibility and book the right assessment.
How often should I have a health check?
Frequency depends on your age, risks and health goals. Your GP will recommend an interval and which preventive tests or vaccinations are due.
How do I book—and when are you open?
Book online or call reception. We’re typically open Mon–Fri, 8:00 am–6:00 pm (check for changes on public holidays).
What are the fees—do you bulk bill?
We’re a mixed-billing practice. Some services and eligible patients may be bulk billed; otherwise a gap fee can apply. See our current fee schedule or ask reception when booking.
