10.01.2022 GMP introduces Dr Sonia Van Gessel. I am proficient in primary care medicine and am registered with APRHA as a specialist general practitioner. In addition I have developed core public health competencies during my Public Health Physician training in New Zealand, and have strong analytical skills (both quantitative and qualitative) with the ability to critically assess literature/issues in an efficient manner. I have recent clinical leadership, health service redesign and fac...ilitation experiences as well as continuing to practice medicine in primary care. My area of interest is primary health care, in particular in change management and in facilitating the integration of primary and secondary care services to improve the patient journey and I wish to gain further experience in this area. I have a strong institutional knowledge of primary health care in New Zealand and health system issues in general. In addition I am developing a broader understanding of the Australian health care arena in the implementation of HealthPathways in the Illawarra Shoalhaven region, which is a clinical pathway and service redesign program as well as continuing postgraduate study in health management. Dr Van Gessel is available for appointments from Wednesday 8th March 2017.

07.01.2022 Exercise Tips 101 *Be aware of your body. Think about how the particular exercise is making you feel. If something doesn’t feel right, stop immediately and seek medical advice. *Warm up and cool down. Try slow stretches and go through the motions of your sport or activity before starting. Cool down with slow stretching. *Pace yourself. Have at least one recovery day each week to rest. If you are experiencing pain, rest until the pain has gone.... *Mix it up. Try other sports and exercises to reduce the risk of over training. *Strap or tape. If a joint is prone to injury, consider strapping or taping it before exercising. Even better, see an exercise physiologist or physiotherapist to obtain a program to strengthen the injured area and get advice on proper taping techniques. *Stay hydrated. You can lose around one and a half litres of fluid for every hour of exercise; so drink water before, during and after a session. *Be weather aware. Take it easier in hot weather and wear clothing and sunscreen to protect yourself from the elements. *Do it right. Try to get the technique right from the beginning, to ensure you are using your muscles correctly. *Check your gear. Make sure your shoes and equipment fit properly and are right for the activity. Look after your equipment and check it regularly for safety. *Be sensible, especially at night or in secluded areas. Take a friend or your dog, stick to well-lit areas and wear bright or light-reflective clothing so drivers can see you. See more
