Cloud over your head?
Instead of dwelling over negative feelings, allow yourself to connect with them, accept them, experience them, and then let them go.
And if you find yourself struggling, a problem shared is a problem halved, so be sure to reach out for help if needed.
Wishing you all a happy new year with many successes and good health.
Take care and stay healthy 😘

Need a check up?
If you have an ache or a pain, or have noticed an unusual lump recently make sure you put your health first. Consultations can either be done by telephone or face to face if a physical examination is required.
Looking forward to seeing you soon.
Take care and stay healthy 😘

Did you know?
Koalas share exactly the same fingerprints as humans. However, what we don’t have in common is how we keep hydrated. Our adorable friends keep themselves hydrated by eating a lot of eucalyptus leaves and as humans we rely on a number of other sources.
So, as the weather heats up don’t forget to keep a water bottle with you and drink plenty of water throughout the day.
Take care and stay healthy 😘

Are you aged between 50-74? Are you up to date with your breast cancer screening? 📣
If the answer is no to the above then it’s time to get screening.
According to the Australian Institute of Health & Welfare, only half of women in the target age group are taking up their two yearly free mammograms to test for breast cancer.
Breast screening is important for the early detection of breast cancer. The earlier breast cancer is detected the sooner it can be treated with more favourable outcomes. Breast screening also helps to provide women with reassurance following a normal result.
Breast screening is performed using a machine called a mammogram that pushes pressure onto the breasts whilst images are taken. This usually lasts for 10 seconds at a time.
These images are then analysed by a specialist doctor and the results are sent to yourself and your GP. You will then be put on a register to remind you to return every 2 years until the age of 74.
Some symptoms that you should report to your doctor include, changes in the skin, noticing a lump, pain or nipple discharge. If you are concerned about any of the above or are just unsure of how to examine your own breasts please pop by and see me in clinic.
Take care and stay healthy 😘
