A quick reminder to ensure that you order your repeat prescriptions for the holiday period in good time. Our clinic will have reduced hours over the Christmas period and, it may be much harder to get your repeat prescriptions from an urgent care provider.

We recommend that you order yours now through our online patient portal 😊

It’s Movember – Men’s Health Month 💙
This month is all about raising awareness for men’s health — from mental well-being to prostate and testicular cancer.

Take time to check in with yourself and the men around you:
✅ Schedule a health checkup
✅ Talk openly about mental health
✅ Support your mates, colleagues, and family

Small conversations can make a big difference. Let’s break the stigma and keep the conversation going all month long.
