We are so blessed to have Doctors who LOVE teaching and learning from each other. They regularly have peer teaching sessions to help strengthen our Medical Team.

What is an Advance Care Plan? Read the link from Advance Care Planning Australia in the comments because it is NOT JUST FOR OLDER PEOPLE. It is for EVERYONE!

Getting started is EASY! Just have a chat to your regular GP to get the ball rolling. As you can see, we have all been trained by the best of the best in ACD.

With so much uncertainties and pressure of rising costs, we are ALL affected.

If you need help and someone to talk to the Medicare Mental Health Phone Service is FREE and connects you to mental health programs and services that best suit your needs to keep mentally healthy.

A technique we love is "grounding" to help calm some of our feelings.

It can be as simple as walking barefoot on grass and feeling the sensation. Lifeline has helpful information on this technique - link in comments.

Are you aged between 45–49 years old? You may be eligible for a Fully Funded (FREE) comprehensive health assessment.

This s a ONE - OFF preventative health check up - like an annual check up but you won't need to pay.

It includes a comprehensive physical exam (BMI, blood pressure), lifestyle review (diet, smoking, alcohol), and may also include pathology tests to identify potential health issues early.

Those who turn 50 this year - GET IN QUICK because once you turn the corner from 49, you won't be eligible for this opportunity anymore

CHECK WITH YOUR GP the next time you see them OR Call Reception to request for your GP to check if you are eligible.

Want your practice to be the top-listed Clinic in Highton?

Our Story...

Family Doctors Highton started from an idea that a family doctor should be someone who knows you and your circumstances well. That way, you would receive the best and most suitable care. Always.

We are a team of home grown healthcare professionals who understand life in Geelong and are dedicated to delivering the quality of healthcare services we would want for our own family.

We pride ourselves as a small clinic with a big heart and we aim to provide latest evidence-based treatments, close to home. It’s the way we believe family medicine should be.
