I felt fine. That’s why I almost didn’t book.

I’m 56. Busy. Still working.
No chest pain. No big symptoms.

But my blood pressure had been creeping up, and heart disease runs in my family. My wife kept saying, “Just get it checked.”

I booked a Heart Health Check at MtEvelyn Doctors.
They checked my blood pressure, bloods, did an ECG, and talked me through my overall heart risk. Based on that, I was referred for a CT coronary calcium score.

It came back normal. Now I can stop worrying and focus on staying well.

Sometimes the best time to check your heart is before something goes wrong.

Who injects you matters more than you think !

A recent Australian tribunal decision found a nurse guilty of professional misconduct after unlawfully injecting botulinum toxin without a doctor’s consultation or prescription.
The investigation also uncovered false records and attempts to discourage patients from cooperating with authorities.

This isn’t about alarm.
It’s about standards.

At our clinic:
All injectable treatments are doctor-led
Medical consultation happens before treatment
Patient safety and informed consent come first

Cosmetic injectables are medical treatments. They deserve medical oversight.

If you’re considering anti-wrinkle injections, ask one simple question: Who is medically responsible for your care?

When Rebecca came to our clinic, she was 52 and exhausted. Her periods had stopped, but instead of relief, new symptoms had taken over: Hot flushes and night sweats , Broken sleep, Joint aches, Low mood and irritability, Loss of confidence
She said : “I feel like I’ve lost myself… and I don’t know if this is just how life is now.”

Menopause is not just about periods stopping. It’s a significant hormonal transition that affects wellbeing. We discussed menopause-specific care options, including: Lifestyle and nutritional strategies, Symptom management, Non-hormonal and hormonal options where appropriate

Rebecca finally felt informed — not rushed, not dismissed. Over time: Her sleep improved, Her hot flushes reduced, Her energy returned, She felt confident in her body again

At review, she said: “I wish I’d spoken to someone sooner. I didn’t realise help was available.”

Menopause is not the end of vitality.
With the right support, women can feel strong, confident, and well in this next chapter of life.

If you’re experiencing:
• Hot flushes or night sweats • Poor sleep or fatigue , • Joint pain, low mood, or brain fog

Skin Cancer Checks: Why You Shouldn’t Wait for a Mole to “Look Bad”

Stop assuming you’ll notice a dangerous skin cancer in time. Most people don’t.

One of our patient David, a 47-year-old dad of two. He works indoors, doesn’t think of himself as “the outdoorsy type,” and had no concerns — except for a small spot on his shoulder that “hadn’t really changed.”

He only booked a skin check because his partner insisted. But something had changed — quietly, and without symptoms.

During his comprehensive skin check, we found:

· A small, irregular flat lesion he thought was “just a freckle”

· No pain, no itch, no bleeding — nothing alarming

· But its shape and pigment pattern were classic for early melanoma

A biopsy confirmed it: early melanoma, thankfully removed before it had a chance to spread.

David walked out relieved — and shocked. He told us: “I honestly didn’t think this tiny thing could be cancer.”

This happens far more often than patients realise. Most dangerous skin cancers don’t look dramatic. They don’t scream for attention. They don’t hurt. They just grow — quietly.

Here’s how to protect yourself this year:

Step 1 — Get a Full-Body Skin Check

A trained GP can identify subtle changes and early cancers that are invisible to the untrained eye.

Step 2 — Know Your Risk

You’re at higher risk if you have: Fair skin, Sunburn history, Outdoor work, Family/personal history of skin cancer, Lots of moles or freckles

Step 3 — Don’t Wait for “Something to Look Wrong”

By the time a skin cancer looks concerning, it’s often already advanced.
Early detection = simpler treatment + better outcomes.

Early detection saves lives — and it could save yours.

👉 Book an appointment with Dr Deka or Dr Tina and get your Skin Cancer Check today.
