Health Assessments

At Double Bay Doctors, we prioritise your health at every stage of life. Our range of comprehensive health assessments caters to different ages and demographics, aiming to proactively identify and address potential health risks. From targeted evaluations for specific age-groups, to in-depth heart health checks, our dedicated team provides personalised care to safeguard your health and enhance your well-being.

45 - 49 YEAR OLD HEALTH ASSESSMENTS

Between the ages of 45 and 49 years old is when, statistically, you have a good chance of showing signs of the development of any chronic diseases that are going to have a significant impact on your health and wellbeing later in life. At this stage in life, your GP may be able to make recommendations which, if adhered to, can help ensure that you avoid many of the health problems faced by your peers later in life.

This assessment involves a 30 minute consultation with our nurse, followed by a 15 minute consultation with your GP, and aims to provide tailored recommendations to safeguard your future health.

Patients are eligible for this assessment once between the ages of 45 and 49 (inclusive). Standard gap fees apply.

OVER 75 YEAR OLD HEALTH ASSESSMENTS

For individuals aged 75 years and above, this health assessment delves into your holistic wellbeing - from physical health to psychological and social functions.

This yearly assessment involves a 45 minute consultation with our nurse, followed by a 15 minute consultation with your GP. It encompasses various tests, from hearing and vision checks to blood pressure evaluations, nutritional queries, and discussions regarding psychological and social health.

Patients aged 75 years and over are eligible for this assessment once a year, and it is bulk-billed for patients with a valid Australian Medicare card. 

HEALTHY HEART CHECKS

Do you know what your risk of having a heart attack or stroke is? Having a regular heart health check with your GP will help you better understand your risk of a heart attack or stroke.  
 
A Healthy Heart Check involves a 30 minute consultation with your GP, and analyses your risk factors through lifestyle discussions and specific tests. 
 
Eligible patients include non-ATSI patients aged 45 years and over, or Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients aged 30 years and over. Standard gap fees apply.
