Remembrance Day is one of the most important days on our commemorative calendar. It's a day when we acknowledge those who died or suffered while serving in wars, conflicts and peace operations. Remembrance Day is held on 11 November each year. This is the anniversary of the Armistice of 1918 that ended fighting in World War I. The war didn't officially end until 28 June 1919 with the Treaty of Versailles. People in Australia and many other countries observe one minute's silence at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month because that's when the Armistice came into effect. It's a time to honour all personnel who died or suffered in the service of Australia.

Let’s Talk About OCD

OCD isn’t just about being neat or liking things “just right.”
It’s a real mental health condition that affects millions of people — and it’s often misunderstood.
Obsessions are intrusive, unwanted thoughts that can cause intense anxiety.
People with OCD often know their thoughts and behaviours are irrational, but feel powerless to stop them. It’s not a quirk — it’s exhausting and very real.
People with OCD often know their thoughts and behaviours are irrational, but feel powerless to stop them. It’s not a quirk — it’s exhausting and genuine.
Let’s break the stigma.
Listen. Learn. Support.
If you or someone you know is struggling, you're not alone — help is available. Book an appointment today by callling 02 4381 1576

We are now using Hotdocs
We are continuing to make improvements that benefit our patients, and as part of this effort, we have introduced Hotdocs.
*You can book your appointments online using the HotDoc platform or through our website, which offers a broader range of appointment types to allocate the appropriate time you may require with your preferred doctor.
*We will now be sending all reminders for appointments, clinical reminders and recalls through the Hotdoc SMS platform.
*For full transparency, if you are bulk-billed for an appointment by your doctor, you will receive a link through Hotdocs to approve Medicare bulk billing. Please accept the SMS to avoid paying privately for the appointment.
We are working hard to provide an easily accessible service for our community and welcome feedback and suggestions. Feedback is welcomed by emailing practicemanager@copacabanamedicalcentre.com.au
