Great opportunity today meeting federal member Matt Smith talking about Medicare changes this year and how they impact on General Practice.

From the loss of Mental Health Item numbers, to changes with Chronic Disease Funding, My Medicare, NDIS and Workforce Challenges.

As a small business and with owners that are locals that have grown up here and choose to stay here – advocating for positive change and investment in your healthcare is vital.

Thank you to Matt Smith MP for taking time out of his busy schedule to meet with our team – we really appreciate it and the opportunity to provide ‘grass roots’ experience to how federal level changes affect our community.

🌈 Big news from Hobart!

Dr Katie and Dr Suzanne have just returned from AusPATH 2025.

The Australian Professional Association for Trans Health Conference brought together researchers, primary healthcare providers, community members, specialist clinicians, general practitioners, policy experts, academics and mental health practitioners to chart the future of gender-affirming care in Australia and beyond.

Kaleidoscope Clinic was developed by Dr Katherine and Dr Katie as a specialist GP service to both coordinate and provide Neurodiversity and Gender Diversity Care. We embrace the spectrum of diversity, recognising the challenges and barriers that may have been faced by individuals, and supporting the unique needs of neurodiverse and gender-diverse populations.

Our goal is to improve access to specialised health services, working with other specialists and allied health professionals to ensure comprehensive, personalised care.
