🧠 Now Offering ADHD Assessment & Diagnosis at Shire Family Medical

We’re proud to introduce a new service designed to improve access to ADHD care for children and adults in our community.
Dr Katrina Mikhail is one of a select group of GPs in NSW to complete the Tier 2 Endorsed Prescriber training through the NSW Health ADHD in General Practice Program. This advanced, competency-based training enables her to assess, diagnose and initiate ADHD medication for eligible patients.
Our comprehensive ADHD assessment includes:
✔️ A detailed clinical assessment
✔️ Review of medical, developmental and behavioural history
✔️ Screening for other conditions that may impact attention and behaviour
✔️ Diagnosis where appropriate
✔️ Individualised treatment planning and ongoing support
Whether you’ve noticed signs of ADHD in your child, or you’re an adult seeking answers after years of wondering, we’re here to provide compassionate, evidence-based care in a supportive environment.
At Shire Family Medical, we believe that the right diagnosis can be life-changing and that accessing quality ADHD care shouldn’t be harder than it needs to be.

🤧 Antibiotics aren’t the answer for every illness.
It’s common to think antibiotics will help you recover faster, but they only work against bacterial infections, not the viruses that cause most winter coughs, colds and sore throats.
Taking antibiotics when they’re not needed won’t help you recover sooner and can contribute to antibiotic resistance, making these medicines less effective in the future.
If you’re unsure whether your symptoms need medical attention, we’re here to help.
Our GPs can assess your condition and recommend the most appropriate treatment for you.

🩺 Your Sunday Reminder

It’s easy to put your own health at the bottom of the to-do list.

Here are 5 health appointments you shouldn’t put off:
✔️ Skin Check: Early detection is key when it comes to skin cancer.
✔️ Cervical Screening Test: A simple test that can help prevent cervical cancer.
✔️ Blood Pressure Check: High blood pressure often has no symptoms.
✔️ Diabetes Risk Assessment: Know your risk and catch problems early.
✔️ Mental Health Check-In: Your mental health is just as important as your physical health.

Taking care of yourself means you can continue taking care of the people who matter most.

If you’ve been putting off an appointment, let this be your reminder to book it in (and tick it off the to-do list).

👋 Meet one of the faces behind Shire Family Medical!
You know him as Dr Louis Traynor, but there’s a little more to him than medicine...
🎶 In high school, he played the French horn (yes, really!).
🎳 His favourite way to spend a day off? Bowling with Rebel.
🔥 And according to him, if anyone at Shire Family Medical was going to accidentally start a fire... it’d be him! 😅
We love giving our patients the chance to get to know the people behind the scrubs. Building strong relationships starts with getting to know one another, and that’s exactly what family medicine is all about.
Say hello to Dr Louis next time you’re in the practice! 👋
