The start of the school year can be exciting, but it can also feel overwhelming for some children and teenagers. Changes in routine, friendships, expectations and screen use can affect sleep, mood and behaviour in ways that are not always easy to recognise.

Our latest blog shares practical guidance on:
• Signs to look out for in primary and high school–aged children

Menopause is a natural stage of life, but the changes it brings can feel confusing or overwhelming. From hot flushes and sleep disturbances to mood changes and fatigue, every woman experiences it differently.

At the start of a New Year, it’s very common to start thinking a little more seriously about your health and wellbeing. The fact is, if you are thinking this way, you’re not alone: January accounts for roughly 12% of all gym memberships started in a year, and search interest for “weight loss” and healthy living typically peaks in the first weeks of January as people set New Year’s resolutions. According to Deakin University (2025), around 74% of Australians report making a New Year’s resolution, with health, fitness and wellbeing among the most common focus areas. This isn’t just motivation, it’s a measurable pattern.

However, weight and exercise are just some components of your overall health, and we encourage a holistic view on health overall. Weight management is more than a number on the scale. Small, sustainable changes in eating, movement and daily habits can make a real difference without strict diets or guilt.

Discover practical tips for gentle, long-term weight management, including understanding your BMI, balancing energy in and out, and focusing on health beyond the scale.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a timely reminder of the importance of regular checks and early detection. Breast cancer remains the most common cancer among Australian women, with around 1 in 7 women diagnosed in their lifetime. Early detection can make a significant difference to outcomes and treatment options.

Our practice is proud to support this important initiative by offering breast check and assessment appointments, providing local patients with convenient access to this essential health service.

Our practice is committed to delivering high-quality, patient-centred care. With breast checks, patients can benefit from early detection, reassurance, and peace of mind — without the need to travel far from work or home.

Our experienced team ensures every patient feels supported and cared for in a comfortable and professional environment. This October, we encourage women to prioritise their health and take advantage of this important assessment service.
