During this phase of your life, you have the power to stay on top of any health issues that may become problems in the future. Your health is in your hands, and it's incredibly important to take control. Health issues can prevent you from living your life to the fullest, but your proactive approach can change that. Your appointment with your physician, which can take up to an hour, is a step towards this. Your physician will check for a clear picture of your overall health during this time, but your active participation is key. This includes asking questions about your medical history and running tests. These 45-minute appointments are also great opportunities to ask any medical questions. It's always better to ask your Doctor than it is to rely on "Dr Tiktok", who, at best, gives subjective answers and, worse, gives wrong information that can lead to further health issues.
Best of all, we're proud to announce that the University of Melbourne has selected us as a partner in its latest study. The study aims to improve the overall health and well-being of young people in Victoria by offering annual health checks to those aged between 14 and 24, just like yourself.
We at The Village Blackrock GP want you to be as healthy as possible for as long as possible. Take care of your future self today by booking your appointment!
Consistent maintenance is needed as our bodies change as we age, especially since so many people in the 45-49 age group live busier lives than ever. Unfortunately, as we reach this age group, we face health challenges that we have never faced before, such as being more susceptible to chronic illness or even heart attacks. These challenges are all common, and they are treatable. But they do require action.
Our 45-49 Health Assessments offer a comprehensive physical assessment, providing you with a clear understanding of your current health status and potential risks. This includes:
From there, our team will take this data and formulate a plan to get you where you need to be. In follow-up sessions, our physicians will offer advice and guidance on meeting your goals.

The heart is the hardest working muscle in the body. Like all hard-working machines, it needs more love and maintenance as it ages. Sadly, every four minutes in Australia has a heart attack or stroke. On top of this, it’s estimated that at least 1.4 Million Australians are at risk of a heart attack or stroke and don’t realize it. That makes the best way of avoiding heart problems, which is to prevent them from happening in the first place. Unless caused by a pre-existing genetic condition. But don’t worry! Our team of dedicated, skilled Doctors and Nurses are here to help you.
If you are over the age of 30 with diabetes, between the ages of 45 - 79, or are a member of the First Nations, aged 30 or above, it is time to get your heart checked!

These tests will determine the best course of action for you and your Doctor to maintain a healthy heart. Remember, your heart is your lifeline. Take care of it, so it can take care of you. We want you to be around for as long as you can to enjoy this wonderful life, and that starts with being informed and aware of your heart health.
