Early detection can make a significant difference, yet many eligible Australians are not up to date with their cancer screening tests.

Australia has national screening programs for bowel, cervical and breast cancer. Bowel screening is free for eligible Australians, cervical screening is now required only every five years and can include a self-collected sample, and free breast screening is available to eligible women.

There is no national screening program for skin cancer, making it important to know your skin and speak with your GP about your individual risk and any changes you may be concerned about. But also to put in the diary to have your skin checked every year, the recommendation for Australians!

This Daffodil Day, take a moment to check whether you are due for screening. Our full article explains who is eligible, what has changed and when symptoms should be assessed by a doctor rather than waiting for a screening test.

Do you take creatine? It may affect how your routine kidney blood test results are interpreted.

Creatine is well researched for exercise and muscle performance, while its potential role in brain health is still being studied. Did you know, taking creatine can increase blood creatinine levels, which may make your estimated kidney function appear lower than it actually is.

Before starting creatine, or if you already supplement with creatine, speak with your GP before your next blood test and let them know what supplements you are taking.

Type 2 Diabetes rarely happens overnight — for many people, it starts years earlier with insulin resistance, a condition that can develop quietly with no obvious symptoms. 🩺

Left unchecked, insulin resistance can raise the risk of prediabetes, Type 2 Diabetes, heart disease and other chronic conditions. The good news? Early assessment and the right testing can help catch it before it progresses.
If you have risk factors like excess weight, a family history of Type 2 Diabetes, PCOS, high blood pressure or elevated blood sugar, it may be worth speaking to your GP about a Diabetes Risk Assessment.

is trending right now.

On TikTok, Instagram and YouTube, they are being promoted as the shortcut to faster recovery, weight loss, better skin, muscle gain, year-round tans and even ageing well.

But behind many of these posts is something rarely shown on screen: unapproved products, unknown ingredients, paid discount codes and real health risks.

A testimonial may feel convincing, especially when it comes from someone you follow and trust. But it is still only one person’s story.

Your health deserves more than a trend.

Our latest article takes a clear, factual look at the peptide boom — what peptides are, why Australian regulators are concerned, what the risks may be, and why the safest place to start is with a qualified healthcare professional who understands your history.

If you have seen peptides promoted online, are considering using them, or have already tried them and feel unsure, this is worth reading.

The surprising part? Men account for almost two-thirds of them.

Flu vaccine during pregnancy: Protect you and your baby this flu season

If you are pregnant, getting a flu vaccination during pregnancy is strongly recommended to protect both you and your baby from influenza (flu) during the Australian flu season.

The flu vaccine is safe in pregnancy at any stage, including the first, second, and third trimester. It helps reduce the risk of serious illness, hospitalisation, and complications from seasonal influenza, which can be more severe during pregnancy.

Receiving the influenza vaccine while pregnant also provides important protection for your baby after birth. Antibodies are passed to your newborn, helping protect them in their first few months of life when they are too young to receive their own flu vaccination.

Getting your pregnancy flu shot early is one of the most important and effective steps you can take to support a healthy pregnancy and protect your growing family.

We offer cell-based influenza vaccines as standard, delivering high-quality, patient-centred care focused on safety, comfort, and best outcomes for mothers and babies.

Book your flu vaccination online or visit your local medical practice (walk-ins available at selected clinics).

Please check with your practice to confirm flu vaccine availability before your visit.

Protect yourself this flu season with a flu vaccination

Older adults are at higher risk of serious complications from influenza (flu), including hospitalisation and severe illness. Getting your annual flu vaccine is one of the most effective ways to stay protected during the Australian flu season.

If you are 65 years or older, it is strongly recommended that you book your flu vaccination early to ensure protection before flu cases increase.

The influenza vaccine for over 65s is specifically designed to provide stronger immune protection, helping reduce the risk of severe flu and related complications.

We offer cell-based influenza vaccines as standard, supporting high-quality, patient-centred care focused on safety, effectiveness, and better health outcomes.

Don’t delay. Book your flu shot today to protect yourself and those around you.

Hepatitis C is a viral infection that affects the liver and the good news is, it is now curable with modern treatment. Many people have no symptoms for years, which means testing is the key to early diagnosis, treatment and preventing long-term liver damage.

If you’ve ever had potential exposure (including past blood transfusions, tattoos or injecting equipment), a simple blood test can provide clarity and peace of mind.
