Family Medicine
Wellcrest prides itself on being able to care for the whole family, no matter their medical concerns. All of our GPs and nurses are highly-trained to treat issues such as:
- Family planning
- Health education
- Immunisations
- Minor diseases and injuries
- Adult and children physical check-ups
- Screening tests
- Disease diagnosis
- Mental wellbeing
Additionally, allied health services such as physiotherapy, dietetics, podiatry and chiropractic medicine are available at our clinic.
Each of our professionals takes a proactive approach to family medicine. For example, where a cardiologist might treat a patient after they’ve had a heart attack, a family physician may help avoid the heart attack in the first place, by setting up a plan to help increase exercise, eat better, lower cholesterol and decrease blood pressure. These doctors might also work with specialists to ensure all healthcare needs are met.
