Heart disease is often thought of as a man’s problem. It is not.

It is the leading cause of death in Australian women, and women are far more likely to experience few symptoms, or symptoms that do not fit the textbook picture of a heart attack. Fatigue, nausea, jaw or back pain, and shortness of breath can all be signs, often overlooked or dismissed.

Menopause is a major watershed moment for women’s heart health, with risk increasing significantly during this stage of life. But heart conditions can affect younger women too, sometimes without any of the risk factors we typically associate with heart disease.

If something has felt off, do not wait, and do not assume you are too young or too healthy for it to be your heart.

If you have any concerns about your heart health, or it has been a while since your last check, come and talk to us.

Dr Sharma was recently invited to speak on a panel discussion on the comprehensive management of obesity, sharing her perspective as a GP in primary care.

Her message was simple but important.

Managing weight is not about the number on the scale. It is about health gains. Reducing inflammation. Improving your metabolic markers. Lowering your risk of heart disease, diabetes, and kidney disease. Getting your energy back.
When we treat obesity as a medical condition rather than a lifestyle problem, everything changes.

That is exactly the approach we will be taking at Platinum Weight and Metabolic Health, our new GP-led clinic coming soon to Platinum Medical Centre in Chermside.

Stay tuned for more details.

Dr Sharma presented at the Annual Women’s and Children’s Health Update 2026 at the Brisbane Convention Centre, speaking alongside leading experts to over 3,000 GPs and healthcare professionals from across Australia.
Her topic is one every parent should know about.

Childhood vaccination rates have been declining in Australia for five consecutive years. And the consequences are already showing up. Recent measles and diphtheria outbreaks, and serious whooping cough infections, are a reminder that the diseases we thought we had under control are not gone.

As Dr Sharma put it: the success of vaccination has become its own undoing. Most of us have never seen a child with polio or measles, so the threat feels abstract. But it is not.

The falling rates are not about vaccines failing. They are about trust. Exhausted new parents are navigating overwhelming amounts of information and misinformation, and sometimes simply struggling with access.

If you have questions about your child’s vaccinations, or if you have been putting them off, please come and talk to us. No judgement. Just honest conversation.

All childhood immunisations under 16 years old are bulk billed at Platinum Medical Centre.

The future of at-home testing is already here and Dr Sharma has some thoughts on what it means for you.

Saliva-based pregnancy testing has arrived in Australian pharmacies. No urine sample. Highly accurate. Results in minutes.

But as Dr Sharma explains in this segment for the Australian Health Journal, a positive result at home is just the starting point. Your GP is there to confirm, guide, and manage your antenatal care from there.

Winter is almost here and it is the perfect time to give your immune system a head start.

A few things worth thinking about before June arrives:

Flu vaccine: still available at Platinum, including the needle-free FluMist nasal spray for kids aged 2 to 5.
Vitamin D: levels tend to drop over winter. Worth checking if you are low.
Shingles vaccine: particularly important if you are over 50.
RSV vaccine: now available for older adults and worth discussing with your GP.

Winter does not have to mean getting sick. Book in before the season hits. Link in bio.

17th May marked World Hypertension Day and the message is simple: know your numbers.

High blood pressure affects 1 in 3 Australian adults. Most have no idea because there are no symptoms. It is called the silent killer for a reason.

Left unmanaged, high blood pressure significantly increases the risk of heart attack, stroke, and kidney disease.

A blood pressure check takes two minutes. We do them every day at Platinum. Book in at the link in bio.

Did you know that fatty liver disease affects around 1 in 3 Australian adults and most of them do not know they have it?

Metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) has no symptoms in its early stages. It develops quietly alongside obesity, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, and insulin resistance. Left unmanaged, it can progress to serious liver disease over time.

Dr Sharma is speaking tomorrow night alongside Professor Jacob George from Westmead Hospital at MAFLD Mastery II, a free clinical masterclass on how GPs can better identify, assess, and manage this condition in everyday practice.

If you have been told your liver enzymes are elevated, or you are managing metabolic health conditions, it is worth having a conversation with your GP. We are here.
