World Breastfeeding Week

Breastfeeding has amazing benefits for mum and bub — but it's a learned skill, and it's normal to hit bumps along the way. Mastitis, latch issues, low supply, tongue-tie — you're not failing; you need the right support.

At Bluff Road Medical, Dr Anita Bearzatto is our on-site breastfeeding specialist — one of the few doctors in Melbourne who is also an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant.

Struggling with feeding? Help is here, and it's local. You don't have to figure it out alone. 💛

Winter sun, same risk — is your skin ready?

UV doesn't take a break in winter. Up to 90% of UV rays pass through cloud cover, even on cold, overcast days. Skin cancer doesn't take a season off — and neither should your skin checks.

Two in three Australians will be diagnosed with skin cancer by age 70. It's largely preventable, and early detection makes all the difference.

❄️ UV rays don't stop for the cold — just harder to feel
🔍 Winter's a great time to check for changes from summer
📅 Skin checks should happen all year round, not just in summer

At UV Skin Cancer Clinic, doctors offer full-body skin checks and digital mole imaging year-round.

Don't wait for summer — book your check-up now

This past Wednesday was World Brain Day — but brain health doesn't stop mattering once the day is over

Here's something most people don't know: up to 45% of dementia risk may be linked to factors we can identify and act on. That's huge — it means brain health isn't just down to genetics; it's something you can actively protect.

Noticing changes in memory or concentration? That doesn't necessarily mean dementia — but it's worth understanding why.

That's where BrainyActiv Precision at Bluff Road Medical comes in: a GP-led brain health assessment that gives you a clearer picture of your current brain health, identifies contributing factors, and guides practical next steps — including tailored blood tests, imaging and neuropsychology assessment where needed.

You don't need symptoms to book in. Reassurance counts too. 🙌
World Brain Day may have passed, but there's no wrong time to take the first step. Your future self will thank you. 🧠✨

One donation. Up to three lives saved. ❤️

On World Blood Donor Day, we honour the incredible generosity of blood donors worldwide. Blood cannot be manufactured — it can only come from people who choose to give. That simple act of kindness saves lives every single day. 🩸

Why it matters 🔬
🩹 One donation can be split into red cells, platelets, and plasma — helping up to three different patients.
🏥 Blood is needed for surgery, cancer care, trauma, and childbirth complications — every single day.
⏱️ It takes just 45–60 minutes, and your body fully replenishes the blood within weeks. You lose very little — they gain everything.

From all of us at Bluff Road Medical — thank you to every donor who has ever rolled up their sleeve. You are a quiet hero. 🙏

Have you donated blood before? Share your story in the comments — you just might inspire someone else to take that life-saving step. 👇

It's okay not to be okay. And it's brave to ask for help. 💜

Your mental health matters just as much as your physical health. 🌿

So many of us push through anxiety, stress, grief, burnout, and loneliness in silence — telling ourselves we should be fine, that others have it worse, that we'll manage on our own. But reaching out is not a sign of weakness. It is one of the most courageous things a person can do.

Whether you're struggling right now, supporting someone you love, or want to understand your mind a little better, you don't have to face it alone.

We're here to help — at every stage of life 💜

Whether you're a child navigating big emotions, a teenager finding your way, or an adult carrying the weight of life's challenges, professional support is available for everyone. Bluff Road Psychology and Elevate Psychology Group offer compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to your individual needs, so you can take that first step toward feeling better.

Today — and every day — let's keep the conversation going. Check in with your family, friends, and colleagues. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can offer is: "I'm here." 💜

To the heroes who show up — every single day. 💙

On International Nurses Day — 12 May — we pause to honour one of the most vital, selfless, and extraordinary professions in the world. 🌍

Nurses are the heartbeat of healthcare. They’re the comforting faces in tough times, the steady hands that care for you when you’re vulnerable, and the compassionate voices that remind you that you’re not alone. Despite long hours and heavy responsibilities, they always manage to offer kindness and unwavering care.

To every nurse across Australia and around the world — thank you. What you do matters more than words can ever express.

Day in and day out, Dee, Angela, Lauren, Marley, Kylie, Deborah, Danni, and Lisa bring skill, warmth, and genuine care to every patient they see. We are so incredibly proud to have them on our team. 🙌

If a nurse has ever made a difference in your life, today is the perfect day to say thank you. Drop your message of appreciation in the comments below — let’s show them just how loved and valued they truly are. 👇

Did you know 1 in 7 women live with endometriosis — yet many wait years for a diagnosis?

Endometriosis isn't just painful periods. It can cause fatigue, bowel and bladder pain, pain during s*x, and fertility concerns. And because it looks different for everyone, it's often missed or dismissed.

The good news? With the right GP in your corner, you don't have to navigate this alone.

Our colleagues at Bayside Family Medical are proud to have Dr Srishti Dhir on their team, a GP specialising in women's health who provides compassionate, evidence-based care for people with suspected or diagnosed endometriosis.

From first assessment through to long-term management, Dr Dhir takes the time to listen, advocate, and build a personalised plan that goes beyond just managing symptoms.
