National Heart Week is a reminder that heart health plays an important role in overall wellbeing.

Heart disease remains one of the leading causes of illness in Australia, but small, consistent lifestyle habits can help support heart health over time.

Throughout the week, we’ll be sharing simple ways to help support your heart, including movement, nutrition and regular health checks.

Looking after your heart is part of looking after your long-term health 💙💙

You’re always welcome to bring a family member, friend or carer to your appointment. Having support can be really helpful, especially when discussing health concerns or remembering important information.

If the person attending with you would also like medical advice, a separate appointment will usually be needed. This helps ensure each patient receives enough time, privacy and attention for their individual concerns.

GP appointments are carefully scheduled so doctors can provide safe, thorough and personalised care for everyone. Allowing adequate time for each person also helps the clinic run smoothly and reduces delays for other patients.

If needed, our reception team is always happy to help organise another appointment time.

Thank you for helping us support the care of all patients.

Not sure what appointment length to book?

Choosing the correct appointment type helps ensure your GP has enough time to properly address your concerns and provide the best possible care.

Standard appointments (15minutes) are usually suitable for a single issue, repeat prescription or simple review.

A longer appointment (30, 45 or 60 minutes) may be helpful if you:
💙 have multiple concerns to discuss
💙 would like mental health support
💙 require paperwork, forms or care plans
💙 have a complex or ongoing condition
💙 need medicals such as insurance, employment or driver’s licence assessments

If you feel you may need more time, we encourage booking a longer appointment. This allows for more thorough discussion and helps avoid feeling rushed.

We kindly ask that appointments focus on the issue they were booked for. If additional concerns arise, a follow-up appointment can always be arranged.

Thank you for helping us care for all patients efficiently and ensure everyone receives the time and attention they need.

Today is World Health Day 👩‍⚕️

Looking after your health doesn’t have to be complicated. Here are 5 simple ways to support your health and overall wellbeing.

Getting enough sleep, moving your body, eating a balanced diet, staying connected with others and checking in on your health all play an important role.

You don’t have to do everything at once. Even one small change can make a meaningful difference over time.

A simple reminder today to take a moment for your health, in whatever way works for you.

Influenza (flu) is more than just a cold. It can cause high fever, fatigue, sore throat, cough, muscle aches and can lead to complications such as chest infections or pneumonia.

Our Flu Clinic is now open, with flu vaccinations available for adults and children.

Eligible children aged 2–5 years may also have access to a needle-free nasal flu immunisation as part of the 2026 Queensland program.

✔ Flu vaccines available for adults and children
✔ Needle-free option available for eligible children
✔ Quick appointments available

Please note: children are unable to be booked directly into the Flu Clinic. Children require an appointment with a doctor first to assess suitability for vaccination.

Every 30 minutes!

That’s how often someone in Australia is diagnosed with melanoma.

It’s a reminder of how important it is to stay aware of your skin. Getting to know what’s normal for you can make it easier to notice when something changes.

If you notice a new spot, or something that looks different or has changed over time, it’s worth having it checked by a healthcare professional.

If you’re unsure, or it’s been a while since your last skin check, have a chat with your GP about what’s right for you.

Today is International Day of Happiness 😁

Living in a place like Central Queensland, we’re lucky to have simple things around us that can support our wellbeing. A walk along the beach, fresh air, time with friends or family.

Happiness isn’t about feeling good all the time. It’s about feeling balanced, supported and able to cope with everyday life.

Often it’s the small, consistent habits that help. Getting enough sleep, moving your body, spending time outdoors and staying connected with others can all support both your mental and physical health.

A small reminder today to make time for the things that help you feel like yourself again.
Looking after your wellbeing is an important part of your overall health.

🔤 Know your skin ABCDEs

When it comes to checking your skin, remembering your ABCs can help you spot changes early.

The ABCDE rule is a simple guide used when looking at spots or moles:

🔆A – Asymmetry
One half of the spot does not match the other.

🔆B – Border
Edges may appear irregular, uneven or blurred.

🔆C – Colour
Different shades or uneven colour within the same spot.

🔆D – Diameter
Larger than about 6mm.

🔆E – Evolving
Any spot that is changing in size, shape or colour over time.

You might also notice other warning signs such as a new spot that looks different from others, a sore that does not heal, itching, bleeding, crusting, or rapid changes in size, shape or colour.
