How many times have you said,

"I'll look after myself once things settle down."

Wellness looks different for everyone. It might include:

🌿 Managing stress in healthy ways
🚶 Making time for regular movement

🥗 Building balanced daily habits
🩺 Speaking with your GP about preventive health checks that may be appropriate for you

At Botanic Ridge Doctors, our team provides healthcare across different stages of life. Whether you have questions about your physical health, mental wellbeing or preventive care, you can speak with your GP about your individual health needs and what care may be appropriate for you.

Your heart works quietly in the background, every single day.

Most of the time, we don't think about it. But understanding your heart health can be an important part of looking after your overall wellbeing.

Whether you've been referred by your GP, are experiencing symptoms that require further assessment, or need ongoing cardiac monitoring, appropriate cardiac investigations can provide information to assist with your clinical care.

At Botanic Ridge Doctors, Adel Cardiology provides cardiac assessment services, including:

❤️ Echocardiograms
🏃 Stress echocardiograms

These investigations provide information about the heart's structure and function and may assist healthcare professionals in assessing a range of cardiac conditions where clinically appropriate.

If your GP recommends further cardiac assessment, our team can assist with coordinating your referral to Adel Cardiology.

If you have concerns about your heart health, speak with your healthcare professional about the assessment options that may be appropriate for you.

Becoming a parent comes with many special moments, and plenty of questions along the way.

Cancer touches the lives of so many Australians.

Whether it's a loved one, a friend, a colleague, or your own health journey, many of us know someone whose life has been impacted by cancer.

This Daffodil Day, we recognise the important work of the Cancer Council in supporting people affected by cancer, funding vital research, and raising awareness about the importance of prevention, early detection and ongoing support.

While we can't always control every health outcome, we can take positive steps towards looking after our wellbeing by staying informed, attending recommended health checks and screening programs, and speaking with our healthcare team about any concerns.

At Botanic Ridge Doctors, we’re proud to support initiatives that encourage health awareness, preventative care, and compassionate support within our community.

Today, we stand together with everyone impacted by cancer and acknowledge the strength of patients, families, carers, researchers and healthcare teams working towards a future with better outcomes for all.

Winter has a funny way of making us forget about our skin.

The hats come out. The jumpers go on. And sunscreen sometimes gets left behind.

But your skin still deserves attention, even during the cooler months.

At Botanic Ridge Doctors, Dr Dipankar Chakraborty provides skin checks to assess new, changing or concerning spots and discuss your individual skin health and risk factors.

A skin check may be worth considering if you notice:

☀️ A spot that is new or has changed in size, shape, colour or appearance
🩺 A personal or family history of skin cancer
🌿 Fair skin or a history of significant sun exposure
📅 It has been a while since your last skin check

Your individual risk factors can help determine how often you may need a professional skin check. If you're unsure, speak with your healthcare professional about what's appropriate for you.

If you've been meaning to discuss a spot or your skin health, consider this your reminder to book an appointment.
