🌿 Celebrating 18 wonderful years with Deb 🌿

After an incredible 18 years as our Practice Manager, it is time to celebrate the retirement of our very special Deb.

For nearly two decades, Deb has been an important part of our medical centre, supporting our doctors and staff, caring for our patients and helping make our practice the welcoming and caring place it is today.

Many of our patients will know Deb as a familiar, friendly face at the practice. She has welcomed generations of patients through our doors, taken the time to listen, offered reassurance when it was needed and helped ensure that everyone felt supported and cared for.

Over the years, Deb has seen doctors come and go, staff join the team, systems and technology change, and Medicare updates come around more times than anyone would like to count! Through it all, she has been a constant presence and a steady source of knowledge, support and good humour.

Deb has worked tirelessly behind the scenes to keep everything running smoothly, always with the wellbeing of our patients and team at heart. Her loyalty, dedication, friendship and commitment have meant so much to everyone at the practice.

We are incredibly grateful for everything she has given to our team and to our patients over the past 18 years. Her kindness, care and familiar presence have touched so many people in our practice community.

Deb, thank you for your hard work, your patience, your laughter and your unwavering support. You have been a huge part of our practice family, and you will be very much missed by our staff and patients alike.

We hope retirement brings you plenty of time to relax, enjoy holidays, spend time with family and friends, and make wonderful memories with your eight grandchildren.

Congratulations on your well-deserved retirement, Deb! We wish you every happiness for this next chapter. 🥂🌸

Thank you for 18 wonderful years. ❤️

Soon we say goodbye to Dr Jye Heytman and good luck as he and his partner Meg start their next chapter preparing to welcome their first child. We thank Dr Jye for being part of the TMC/MM team and wish him all the best. Jye will be missed by staff and patients alike and he would like to share the message below.

To the Tully Medical Centre / Mission Medical community,
I’m messaging on this platform to let you all know about a tough decision I’ve had to make. I’ve let a lot of patients know already but after taking paternity leave at the end of September I’ve decided to work solely at Innisfail Hospital.
It’s not a decision I’ve made lightly but overall it was made to be at home more with the arrival of our first child.
I first came and worked at TMC back in 2021, arriving with Tom as young doctors keen to get stuck into working in a rural community. It felt like coming home when I returned to the TMC in 2025. This is secondary to the amazing culture and leadership from our team at TMC which has created a family rather than a workplace. I want to thank everyone at TMC/MM for welcoming me back with open arms and allowing me to create so many amazing memories over the last 2 years since being back. Thanks to all of the patients for allowing me to look after you - I’ve loved getting to know you all.
It’s definitely only good bye for now as I’m sure I’ll be back in the future!
Lots of love,
Jye

To our wonderful patients and Cassowary Coast community,

I am writing to share that I will be finishing up my regular clinical days at both Tully Medical Centre and Mission Medical, with my final day of consulting on Tuesday, 17 November.

It has been an absolute privilege caring for this community, meeting so many of you, and supporting your skin health over my time here.

Your ongoing skin care remains a top priority for both clinics:

Ongoing Skin Checks: Both Tully Medical Centre and Mission Medical are committed to providing comprehensive skin checks and skin cancer management moving forward. Dr Leonie Fromberg and Dr Shaq Rizvi are both trained in Dermoscopy and skin cancer surgery. Our doctors will continue to provide skin checks, excisions and surgical referrals.

Seamless Records: All patient files, clinical notes, and dermoscopic imaging remain securely on file at the clinics, ensuring smooth continuity for your regular checks, follow-ups, and monitoring.

Routine Follow-ups: The clinic teams are fully equipped to handle your regular full-body checks and any ongoing procedural care after my departure.

If you have an upcoming procedure planned with me or are due for a routine skin check before mid-November, appointments remain open until my final consulting day.

Tully Medical Centre: Call reception or book online via HotDoc.

Mission Medical: Call reception or book online via HotDoc.

Thank you all for your warmth, trust, and support during my time practicing in Tully and Mission Beach. Please reach out to reception at either clinic if you have any questions regarding your upcoming reviews or ongoing care.

Kindest regards,
Dr Row

Results of my first month of skin cancer checks at Mission Medical and Tully Medical Centre 🤔

After my first month, I would like to thank the community for the warm welcome to the region. I think this also provides an opportunity to give some feedback in the form of statistics. In my last 9 days of clinics, I’ve diagnosed and created treatment plans for 57 melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancers. That’s more than 8 every single day!

Living in North Queensland means we are at the forefront of the highest skin cancer rates in the world. These numbers aren't just statistics—they are my patients and neighbours. If you’ve been putting it off, please don't wait. Let’s get your skin checked.
