15.01.2022 Shingles (also called herpes zoster) is the disease caused when the chickenpox virus reactivates. Shingles can cause severe pain that can last for months. Vaccination is a safe and effective way to protect you from serious disease caused by shingles. By getting vaccinated against shingles, you can also help protect other people, especially people who are unable to be vaccinated. The more people who are vaccinated in your community, the less likely the disease will spread. Any...one over 50 years old who wants to protect themselves against shingles can talk to their doctor about getting immunised. Shingles immunisation is recommended for: adults aged 70 years to 79 years, for free under the National Immunisation Program (NIP) adults aged 60 to 69 years adults 80 years and older adults aged 50 or over who live in the same household as someone who has a weakened immune system.

06.01.2022 You may notice that occasionally there may be 2 doctors in the room for your consultation, or that your doctor may seek advice from another doctor at the practice. We strongly believe in continuing professional development and that each doctor receives regular mentoring to ensure they are continuously evolving & growing their general and medical knowledge! We will always ask you if this is ok, and if there is something you would like to discuss with your doctor only please don't hesitate to let us know. It will never affect the quality of care you receive.
