💙 DYING TO KNOW MONTH | AUGUST 💙

As we come to the end of August, the team at Anglesea Medical has taken part in raising awareness for Dying to Know Month.

Dying to Know Day was held on 8th August, encouraging open and honest conversations around end-of-life wishes, advance care planning and grief management.

These conversations can feel difficult, uncomfortable or like something we don’t need to think about “just yet”. But starting the conversation early can make an important difference — for you, your family and those supporting you.

Our GPs and nurses at Anglesea Medical can help you take that first step. You don’t need to have all the answers. Starting the conversation with us can help point you in the right direction, provide guidance on where to begin, and connect you with the right people and services for further support.

Start the conversations we know can be tricky to have.
Because sometimes, having the conversation is the most important place to start.

👀 Keep an eye out for our next NewsAngle article, where we’ll share more about Dying to Know Day and why these conversations matter.

💚💙 Welcome Dr Zulfa to Anglesea Medical! 💙💚

We are so excited to welcome Dr Zulfa to Anglesea Medical. Dr Zulfa will now be consulting from our clinic every Wednesday, helping us continue to provide quality healthcare for our local community.

After graduating from the University of Cape Town in 2009, Dr Zulfa gained extensive experience across general practice, emergency medicine, obstetrics and gynaecology, and paediatrics. She also holds a Diploma in Child Health and has a genuine passion for caring for babies, children and their families.

Since making Australia home, Dr Zulfa has worked in both hospital and general practice settings and is also a Medical Educator with the RACGP, helping to train the next generation of GPs.

Although she enjoys all areas of general practice and caring for patients of all ages, Dr Zulfa has a special interest in children’s health.

We’re proud to continue growing our team to better serve the Surf Coast community.

Last year we got behind The Push-Up Challenge to help raise funds, start conversations, and show just how powerful community support can be when it comes to mental health. 💪❤️

So we’re doing it again.

From 3-26 June, the team at Anglesea Medical will be taking part in this year’s Push-Up Challenge and we’d love more locals to join us. You can sign up to participate, support a friend, or make a donation to help fund mental health services and awareness across Australia.

And don’t stress... you don’t need to smash out thousands of push-ups to be involved. You can set your own target, substitute exercises, or simply support the cause from the sidelines. Every bit counts.

If you’d like to join or support the Anglesea Medical Community team, head here:

Let’s push for better mental health together.

Dr Lucy Dobson – Returning from Maternity Leave!

We are pleased to share that Dr Lucy Dobson will be returning from maternity leave as of Thursday 9th April.

Initially, Dr Dobson will be working one day per week (Thursdays). As availability will be limited, we kindly ask patients who wish to see Dr Dobson to plan and book appointments accordingly.

For any appointments required before Dr Dobson’s next available Thursday, our other GP providers are still more than happy to continue the shared care of Dr Dobson’s existing patients, to ensure continuity of care.

Please contact reception if you need assistance with bookings or would like to discuss your appointment options.

20/03/2026

Heads up that from Tuesday next week our online bookings will all be via AMS Connect, as we have switched to AutoMed for our booking and recall systems.

Download the app now so you’re ready to go, and expect some changes to reminder and recall notifications - which will be simpler and more efficient.

Yes, it’s another Extreme fire danger day tomorrow. Similar to the last one we will be open as usual tomorrow morning Tues 17 February at 8:30am unless things change overnight.

Due to increased fire risk we are offering Telehealth to patients (where appropriate) to reduce travel, and also continue care if people are enacting their fire plan and leaving the area. Please call the clinic on 0342156700 to change your appointment and please be patient with reception - calling after 10am to change later appointments would be appreciated.

If conditions worsen, we will prioritise safety and may convert to Telehealth only appointments and close the clinic. We will keep you updated.

Stay safe. Keep hydrated and stay cool, particularly if you have any significant health issues.

Keep your Vic Emergency App available and follow any guidance issued.
