The security, comfort and connection that a baby seeks throughout their day may positively influence their sleeping and feeding.

Just like ourselves, we also need to fulfil other areas of a baby's wellbeing through physical, mental and social activity.

Keeping a baby content also has a flow-on effect to everyone providing care, so finding experienced advice can make a world of difference.

Your doctor can connect you with health professionals to assist in settling your baby, breastfeeding, swaddling and safe sleep positioning.

Your doctor can also assist with immunisation, to help protect your child from serious infectious diseases such as whooping cough and measles.

The doctors at Affinity Family Medical can arrange vaccinations, manage ongoing conditions and provide continuity of care for you and your family.

Appointments are available through the website or with our friendly reception staff by calling (07) 4804 5680.

A shave, cut or colouring this month for The World's Greatest Shave aims to change the lives of Australians facing blood cancer right now.

For over 25 years, The Leukaemia Foundation has been raising funds to help provide families with the support they need, regardless of who they are or where they live.

Each year, thousands of Australians fundraise during March to also power crucial research projects to bring a future nearer, free of blood cancer.

Options to donate directly to the foundation, a fundraising team, or randomly boost the fundraising journey of someone are here:

Finding a path through family planning that complements our needs and wishes is easier if we start early.

From contraceptive implants, prescriptions, and procedures, a GP consultation provides a private environment to discuss your needs.

As your primary healthcare provider, your GP has your long-term health in mind and can advise based on your current medical status.

Family planning with your doctor may also incorporate safety considerations, such as your current medication or managing chronic conditions.

Your doctor can also help navigate procedural options, arrange supplements or vaccinations, and advise on the timing and methods of family planning.

In broader terms, the doctors of Affinity Family Medical can manage your general medical needs, connecting you with resources and referrals as required.

Appointments are available through the website or with our friendly reception staff by calling (07) 4804 5680.

Dr Nyo, Dr Justin and Dr Sylvia are currently accepting new patients and, as part of their primary healthcare services, offer general health checks.

Along with cardiovascular, kidney and liver disease, the early stages of type 2 diabetes, hypertension and high cholesterol can progress silently for years before causing noticeable symptoms.

A health check may help identify these long-term, progressive, and often manageable conditions that are drivers of heart attack, stroke and other significant health events.

Awareness of these medical conditions through a health check may allow time to manage our health and adjust lifestyle choices to minimise the impact of chronic disease.

Although Affinity Family Medical is a private billing medical practice, eligibility may apply for Government-funded health assessments, such as a one-off check for 45–49 year-olds or an annual check for those 75 and over.

As part of a health assessment, your doctor can discuss your family medical history of chronic disease, current lifestyle choices and, as required, arrange various tests.

Appointments are available through the website or with our friendly reception staff by calling (07) 4804 5680.

Encouraging a balanced, nutrient-dense diet during teenage years may see healthy habits extend into adulthood.

One way to develop their understanding of nutrition and an appreciation of fresh, whole foods is to involve them in meal planning.

Shopping is also an opportunity to highlight more subtle aspects of food choices, for example, comparing labels to check the level of processing and types of fats or sugars items contain.

Beyond establishing the practical skills of cooking, children can learn about balancing meals with one quarter carbohydrates, one quarter protein and the remaining half from fruit and vegetables.

Conversations cooking together could also cover concerns about weight and self-image or address myths and misinformation surrounding diets and supplements.

Guiding teenagers toward healthy food can help fuel their development, grow confidence in a newfound skill, provide an outlet for stress or provide an opportunity to impress their friends.

Affinity Family Medical can complement these efforts by providing general health checks, managing their primary care needs and discussing medical concerns.

During a consultation, your doctor can discuss skin conditions, weight management, sporting injuries, sexual health and mental well-being, referring to specialists and allied health professionals as required.

Appointments are available through the website or with our friendly reception staff by calling (07) 4804 5680.

Part of the wearing of teal ribbons this month is a reminder that the early signs of Australia’s most lethal gynaecological and reproductive cancer are easy to miss.

Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month aims to encourage conversations about this cancer and its early symptoms, which are often vague or attributed to other, more common conditions, such as menopause, irritable bowel syndrome or food intolerances.

As there is currently no simple, effective, or reliable screening test for ovarian cancer, it’s crucial to look out for the potential signs and seek assistance earlier.

Unexpected and persistent bloating, feeling full quickly, difficulty eating, abdominal and pelvic pain, fatigue, lower back pain, irregular menstrual bleeding or changes in bowel or bladder patterns are just some of the symptoms.

Information about ovarian cancer is available here, along with ways to support this event, including donating, starting a fundraiser, or purchasing a teal ribbon to spark potentially life-changing conversations.
