Skin Checks

We undertake routine skin checks, using Liquid Nitrogen to freeze pre-cancerous areas, perform skin biopsies on suspicious lesions and excise (cut out) skin cancers. If more than a simple excision is required we can refer to dermatologists or plastic surgeons in the area

Mental Health Counselling

All doctors in this practice have undertaken further education in dealing with mental health issues. If necessary we can refer you to appropriate psychiatric or psychological services. If we prepare a Mental Health Care Plan you can obtain a significant rebate for psychological services. It is most important to book a LONG appointment for this

Implanon Insertion

We have doctors trained in Implanon insertion. Please make an appointment with your doctor to discuss Implanon – we can then arrange a suitable appointment time for the procedure

Immunisations

We have all routine childhood vaccinations available. Please let our receptionist know if you are coming in for vaccinations. We have adult vaccinations (such as Tetanus, Fluvax and Hepatitis) in stock. Most travel vaccinations are available from the adjacent pharmacy

Diabetes Clinic

Our nurses run a diabetes clinic to monitor all our diabetic patients. Patients are seen on a 3 to 6 monthy basis by the nurse and the doctor. Dietary and exercise advice, BP, weight and circulation checks, monitoring of blood glucose levels and adjustments to medications can be carried out.

Iron Infusions

We run an iron infusion clinic to treat iron deficiency. You will need to attend the doctor for a consultation, to have iron deficiency confirmed, and any underlying causes excluded. You will then be asked to return, on a separate occasion, to have an iron infusion. For more information, CLICK HERE
