Antenatal Share Care
Pregnant or to-be-pregnant patients can be seen by their regular doctor for most of their pregnancy. Your doctor sees you every month for the first six months , fortnightly for the next two months and then every week for the last month.   

All the necessary blood tests, ultrasounds and hospital visits will be arranged for you by your doctor. A midwife from Redcliffe Hospital visits the practice each week to see our antenatal patients who plan to attend that hospital.


Travel Vaccination and Immunisation Clinic
Many Australians have developed the travel bug which is shared by a number of the practices doctors. Most people who travel overseas enjoy good health and don’t contract disease or illnesses. But to be on the safe side you need to think about some simple health issues. It is always wise to ensure your tetanus, diptheria, polio and hep B and Hep C vaccinations are up to date while in some destinations precautions against malaria and yellow fever are advised.  As some immunisation schedules take up to eight weeks  to complete it is advisable to discuss your plans with your doctor well in advance.
