General Practice

Men’s Health

Let’s face it, men aren’t always the best at keeping on top of their health. Our doctors can provide excellent tips and advice on all topics relating to men’s health in a friendly, supportive and collaborative environment.

Children’s Health

We understand how stressful it can be to have a sick child, and appreciate how important it is for a parent to be able to discuss concerns. It's such a privilege to meet so many babies at their initial 6 week check-up, and then follow them over time as they develop into teenagers. We also have great nurses to help and administer appropriate immunisations for neonates, toddlers and school aged children.

Women’s Health

Our team of male and female doctors can provide expert advice on all topics ranging from adolescent changes, contraception options, Implanon implants, cervical screening, breast screening, sexual health, fertility and menopause.

Preventative Health

Remember prevention better than cure! Our medical team can provide expert and evidence-based medical advice on all sorts of health matters including - blood pressure, cholesterol checks, heart risk assessments, mental health, weight management, dietary advice and screening for cancer. We're also equiped to help manage chronic health conditions such as diabetes, and and help you achieve optimal outcomes.

Travel Health

Bon Voyage and Bonne Sante ! Travelling overseas is exciting but looking after your health abroad is just as important. Ask us about the latest world health concerns and disease prevention, as well as keeping any of your concurrent health issues under control. We have a number of suitable travel vaccines available on-site to keep to you and your family safe and well on your journey.

Skin Checks

The sunny Australian climate is unfortunately a significant risk factor for skin cancer. It could be time for a skin check, especially if you have concerns about a particular mole or blemish? We can provide immediate assessment and care for many skin conditions. Some of our GPs are skilled at minor skin excisions, but can also refer you to a trusted network of dermatologists and/or plastic surgeons.

Sports Health & General Injuries

From the elite athlete to the “weekend warrior”, our doctors can get you up and running once more. We can provide immediate care for injuries as well as advice return to training following recent health concerns.

Pregnancy Care

Congratulations! A number of our doctors are trained to help for immediate and on-going pregnancy shared care. Our clinic is affiliated with many public obstetric hospitals including The Women’s, The Mercy and Monash Hospital and can assist mums needing public or private care.

Sexual Health

Our doctors can provide up-to-date and safe sexual health advice and are comfortable with all ages and sexual orientations. We can guide you through your contraception options and can assist with STI screening and management.

Pathology

At each of our clinics, we have a Melbourne Pathology collection centre. Not only are they an excellent pathology provider, but having them on-site makes it super convenient for blood tests and other pathololgy samples. No appointment needed, just a referral form from your GP.
