💙 June is Bowel Cancer Awareness Month 💙

Bowel cancer is one of the most common cancers, but when detected early, it is also one of the most treatable.

It's important to be aware of the signs and symptoms, which may include:
✔ Changes in bowel habits
✔ Blood in your stool
✔ Unexplained weight loss
✔ Ongoing abdominal pain or discomfort
✔ Persistent tiredness or fatigue

If you experience any of these symptoms, don't ignore them. Speak with your GP, especially if symptoms persist or concern you.

Regular screening can save lives. If you're eligible for bowel cancer screening, completing your screening test is one of the most effective ways to detect bowel cancer early, often before symptoms develop.

This Bowel Cancer Awareness Month, take a moment to learn the signs, encourage your loved ones to participate in screening, and help spread awareness in our community.

For more information or to discuss any concerns, please contact our clinic to make an appointment on 8178 0087 or book online at https://www.hotdoc.com.au/

Heart disease remains one of the leading health concerns in Australia, but the good news is that many risk factors can be managed with simple lifestyle changes.

Here are a few ways to support a healthy heart:
❤️ Stay active – aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise most days
🥗 Eat a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains
🚭 Avoid smoking and limit alcohol intake
🩺 Keep up with regular check-ups at your GP to monitor blood pressure, cholesterol, and overall health
😌 Manage stress and prioritise good sleep

Your general practice team is here to support you. Whether it’s a routine heart health check or advice on lifestyle changes, don’t hesitate to take action.
