"3 things about weight management as a GP that I wish more people knew... "

Dr Nicola breaks down why quick fixes don't work, why your whole health picture matters, and why a face-to-face chat (not just a number on the scales) is where real change starts.

Weight management isn't about isolation - it's about understanding YOU. Your hormones, your life, your health, your pace.

Ready to talk? Book in with Dr Nicola Deacon today. 💙

This Heart Health Week, don’t miss a beat. ❤️

A quick Heart Health Check can help you understand your risk, know your numbers, and make a simple plan with your GP.

Book your Heart Health Check with Mingara Medical this week.

𝗔 𝗺𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗗𝗿 𝗪𝗼𝗹𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗺𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸:

"Heart Week is a good reminder that heart disease doesn’t always come with loud warning signs, especially for men.

If you’re in your 40s, 50s or 60s (or you’ve got a family history, high stress, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, you smoke, or you’re less active than you’d like to be), a heart health check with your GP is a simple place to start.

In an appointment, we’ll talk through your risk factors, do a few key checks, and make a plan that fits you.

If it’s been a while, I’d encourage you to book in and get it checked.

Book in to see your GP or with me, Dr James Wolstenholme, at Mingara Medical."

🩺 If you're thinking about joining Mingara Medical, here's what Dr JP wants you to know.

"Our main outlook and word we use is kindness. If they're kind, we allow a lot of leeway, a lot of lifestyle. Not everyone works the same amount of hours, but we are all kind and we expect them to be kind."

Dr JP keeps it simple: fit our culture, and you'll be very happy here.

And Dr Quinton adds: "It's a place of possibilities. You can come here and just work and go home - and that's acceptable. But if you want to strive and do better, there are opportunities. It becomes what you make of it."

Whether you're nursing, doctors, or admin - there's room to grow. 💙

🩺 How long does skin cancer surgery recovery take? When can you get back to your usual activities?

Dr JP breaks it down using a unique visual aid - a painting created by one of his 85-year-old patients who happens to be a talented painter.

The artwork illustrates the skin healing timeline in an S-curve.
"This is the strength of the skin in percentage," Dr JP explains, walking through the recovery milestones: 7 days, 14 days, 21 days, and beyond.

If you've had skin cancer surgery or are considering it, this is essential viewing. 💙

Ladies, you need to check his

April is Testicular Cancer Awareness Month — and while we appreciate a good set of abs, it’s what’s below that matters here.

Testicular cancer is the most common cancer in young men (15–35) — and the good news is it’s highly treatable when picked up early.

So here’s your mission:
🥜Remind your partner (nicely… or not so nicely) to check themselves

🥜What they’re checking for:
• A lump or swelling in a testicle
• A change in size, shape, or firmness
• A dull ache or heaviness in the sc***um
• Anything that just doesn’t feel right

🥜How often?
Once a month. In the shower is easiest. Takes 30 seconds.

Key message:
If something feels off → don’t wait → get it checked.

Because early detection = simple treatment + excellent outcomes.

You can admire the view… but make sure everything’s working properly too 😉

🩺 Kate Herron sat down with two of our co-owners Dr Quinten Willemse and Dr JP Mare to explore what Mingara Medical is really about.

"Historically, general practice has been a place where people go when they're sick. What we tried from day one is to create a place where people can come and promote their health and well-being. Not just when they're sick, but also to improve through lifestyle and intervention."

Dr Quinten on our vision: "I like to look back at what we've done here one day and feel like we've made a real impact in people's lives. I think that's our tagline: Inspiring Better Health."
