We are able to provide various forms of more comprehensive health assessments and encourage eligible patients to avail themselves of these services. These include:

• Over-75‘s Health Assessments – All our patients over 75 years of age are encouraged to book annually for their Over-75s Health Assessment. The duration of this assessment is usually an hour with the Practice Nurse and your normal doctor. These visits are Bulk-Billed.
• Diabetics – We recommend an annual Diabetes Assessment, again a full hour in the Practice, with assessment of your Diabetes management, and screening for complications, in addition to regular monitoring during the year. Diabetics should also have a GP Management Plan.
• Asthmatics – An Asthma Assessment, usually over two visits, with assessment of lung function by spirometry, and development of a written Asthma Management Plan, is recommended for asthmatics who require preventer medication to control their asthma.
• 45 – 49 Year Old Health Assessments – these are designed for people in this age group with risk factors for disease – after first having screening blood tests, spend an hour with us identifying and planning to manage your risk factors to ensure years of good health.
