We are an ageing population, and this comes with a higher burden of chronic disease ( diabetes, heart complaints, arthritis, chronic lung disease). All our doctors are adept at manageing chronic conditions, and you may be eligible for a care plan which will help you access visits to allied health practitioners to support your needs. Health assessments are medicare funded comprehensive health checks available to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients, and others aged 45-49 years and 75years and over.
