Preventative Medicine and Health Assessments

Home » Preventative Medicine and Health Assessments

The best time to deal with a health problem is before it starts. St Mary Medical Centre takes prevention seriously, with health checks and screening designed to pick up risks early, when they are easiest to act on.

Staying ahead of health problems

Many chronic conditions, including heart disease and type 2 diabetes, develop quietly over years. A structured health assessment gives you and your doctor a clear picture of where you stand and a practical plan to stay well. Medicare supports health assessments for a range of patients, including people aged 45 to 49 who are at risk of developing a chronic disease and everyone aged 75 and over.

What we can help with

We provide Medicare health assessments, heart health checks, diabetes risk screening, blood pressure and cholesterol checks, and lifestyle advice covering weight, nutrition, exercise, alcohol and smoking. We also keep you up to date with national bowel, breast and cervical screening programs.

Heart health checks

A thorough check of your cardiovascular risk.

Health assessments

Structured Medicare assessments at key life stages.

Cancer screening

Bowel, breast and cervical screening kept on track.

Lifestyle advice

Practical support for weight, diet, exercise and smoking.

Due for a health check?

If you are aged 45 to 49 and at risk of chronic disease, or aged 75 and over, you may be eligible for a Medicare rebated health assessment. Ask our team whether a structured health check is right for you.
