As part of our focus on preventive care and wellbeing, we invite you to book your one-off Medicare-funded 45–49 Year Health Assessment at Montrose Medical Practice. This assessment helps identify early risk factors for conditions such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes, stroke and osteoporosis, giving you and your GP an opportunity to take steps to protect your health and prevent future problems.
If you are new to our practice, we kindly ask you to book an initial 30-minute consultation (standard consultation fees apply). This allows your GP to get to know you, review your medical history and better understand your individual health needs before arranging your health assessment.
The assessment is fully covered by Medicare and takes around an hour: 45 minutes with a registered nurse and a brife review with your GP. If you have other health concerns, please book a separate appointment so your doctor can address them properly.
During your health assessment, we will:
* Review your personal and family medical history.
* Discuss your lifestyle, including diet, exercise and daily habits.
* Check basic health measurements, including height, weight, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference and blood pressure.
* Review your immunisation status and discuss your mental health, stress levels and emotional wellbeing.
* Provide tailored advice to promote long-term health
How to book:
You can book with your usual GP online (select “Health Check”) or call us on (02) 9660 6788. We also encourage you to register with MyMedicare, nominating Montrose as your regular clinic. This helps us provide you with more coordinated and continuous care.
Thank you for trusting us to be part of your journey to better health. If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to speak to our reception team on 02 9660 6788.
