When was the last time you saw your GP?

Around 30% of Australian men do not get annual GP check-ups.*

Many health conditions don't show obvious symptoms in their early stages.

Regular check-ups give you the opportunity to discuss your health with your doctor and, where appropriate, have pathology tests that can provide important information about your health.

If it's been a while since your last check-up, now might be a good time to book one.

World Haemochromatosis Week runs from 1-7 June 2026.

Haemochromatosis is one of Australia’s most common genetic conditions. It causes the body to absorb and store too much iron, and it runs in families.

This June, Haemochromatosis Australia is helping people move from awareness to action.

Fever, cough, fatigue or congestion?

Some winter illnesses can look like a common cold at first, but may develop into something more serious.

From influenza and RSV to COVID-19, pneumonia and whooping cough, knowing the signs can help you recognise when it may be time to seek medical advice.

Pathology testing can help support diagnosis and treatment decisions.

If symptoms worsen, persist, or breathing becomes difficult, seek medical advice.

Why do we need a new flu vaccine every year?

Because influenza viruses are constantly changing.

Have you had yours yet? In Australia, flu season usually peaks between June and September, making now a good time to get vaccinated ahead of winter.

During winter illness season, pathology testing can help identify illnesses such as influenza, COVID-19 and RSV.

Today is World Hypertension Day!

You can have hypertension (high blood pressure) and feel completely fine. However, left unmanaged, hypertension can increase the risk of heart disease, stroke and kidney disease.

Hypertension remains the leading preventable cause of premature death worldwide, yet many people are unaware they have it.

Regular health checks can help identify potential concerns early, while pathology testing can support the monitoring of overall cardiovascular health and related risk factors.

Cardiovascular disease remains one of Australia’s biggest health challenges, accounting for around one in four deaths nationwide.

Every 12 minutes, one Australian loses their life to cardiovascular disease.

Regular health checks and pathology testing can help monitor important risk factors like cholesterol, blood glucose and kidney function, supporting earlier intervention and better long-term heart health.
