Addressing the unique health needs of men

Men's health is a priority. In Australia, men face unique health challenges, including higher rates of certain cancers, heart disease, and mental health conditions. At our Merrylands Family Practice, we're dedicated to supporting men's health and well-being. Our services include:

• Cancer screenings: We encourage regular screenings for testicular, bowel, and prostate cancer, which can significantly improve outcomes.

• Chronic disease management: The GPs can help you manage conditions like high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and diabetes through lifestyle advice and medication.

• Mental health support: We understand that mental health concerns can manifest differently in men. The doctors can provide support and guidance for conditions like depression and anxiety.

• Preventive care: Regular check-ups, including the 45-49-year health check covered by Medicare, are essential for early detection and prevention of health issues.

• Take the first step: Book an appointment online today to discuss your health concerns and create a personalised care plan.

Remember: Your health is important. Prioritise it.
