Skin Checks

Australia has the highest incidence rate of melanoma in the world, despite extensive campaigning to improve awareness of skin health and the damage that the sun can cause. All GPs at this clinic conduct skin checks for patients to help identify melanoma and other skin cancers at a relatively early stage. By coming in for a regular skin check (approximately once per year is recommended), you can get an idea of the natural state of your skin and monitor any changes in spots over time. This is a key part of ensuring you can identify potential skin cancers early and get treatment started.

Audiometry

Audiometry evaluation is a straightforward procedure to measure your hearing capacity across a range of sounds, frequencies and pitches. During an audiometry test you’ll be in a soundproof room wearing a pair of headphones. The GP will play a range of tones through the headphones, sometimes in both, sometimes just into a single ear. They will ask you to indicate when you can hear the tone and which ear you hear it in.

If you’ve been referred for an audiometry evaluation or simply require one to get a clear idea of the level of your hearing loss, chat to us about scheduling an appointment.

Diabetes

Diabetes affects approximately 1.7 million Australians. An accurate diagnosis early in the illness is critical to establishing an effective management plan and ensuring that life can go on relatively normally. The doctors in Deception Bay are broadly experienced in identifying, diagnosing and treating diabetes in patients from a variety of backgrounds and with a range of associated health issues.

Complications from diabetes can be devastating. Blindness, loss of limbs and heart disease can all result directly from diabetes. Adequate treatment is the key to managing diabetes, although like many illnesses, prevention is more effective than a cure. Most of our diabetes treatment regimens are targeted at controlling blood sugar levels, although we may also recommend exercise and other lifestyle changes to help you manage your diabetes without medication.

Asthma

As many as 2.7 million Australians suffer from asthma. The GPs at our practice have helped hundreds of Deception Bay locals tackle their problems with asthma and develop effective treatment methods. The key to treating any form of understanding lies in tracking symptoms and gaining a very clear picture of what triggers your asthma, whether it’s a time of day or particular environmental factors.

With a clear picture of the causes of your asthma they can recommend treatments that will help reduce the triggers of asthma attacks and return some normality to your life.  Treatment methods may require a spirometry test at the start of your treatment plan, different medications and lifestyle and dietary changes.

Weight Loss

Over a quarter of the Australian adult population is obese. Australia is facing an epidemic of obesity unlike any societal health challenge faced in history. If you are overweight or obese, please speak with a GP about a weight loss plan. Living life at a healthy weight will help you avoid a huge range of health complications.

The doctors at our Deception Bay clinic have helped dozens of patients suffering from obesity. Basic plans such as reducing the consumption of certain food items or introducing a marginal amount of exercise into daily routines can really help address weight problems. It all starts with a plan.
