This week marks an incredible milestone as we celebrate 40 years of Dr Donohue at the practice!

What an achievement, and a true testament to the care, dedication, and support he has given to generations of patients and families within our community over the years.

Dr Donohue has also been an incredibly valued mentor and educator to so many doctors, both past and present, sharing his knowledge, guidance, and passion for medicine throughout his career. His impact on the practice and wider medical community is something truly special.

Thank you, Dr Donohue, for everything you have contributed over the past four decades. We are so grateful to celebrate this milestone with you 🎉

Needle-free flu vaccines for children aged 2 to 5 years are now available!

For some children, having a nasal spray option can make flu vaccination a little less daunting during flu season.

Vaccination remains one of the best ways to help protect against the flu and reduce the spread within families and the community.

If you would like to book your child in for the needle-free flu vaccine, please contact the clinic today

Yesterday was International Receptionists Day, and we want to give a big thank you to our amazing reception and administration teams across our practices.

From the moment patients walk through the door or pick up the phone, our reception teams help create a welcoming and supportive environment every day. They manage the busy moments, solve problems on the go, keep everyone organised, and somehow still manage to do it all with a smile.

A lot happens behind the scenes that patients never see, and their hard work, patience and support truly help keep our practices moving.

We appreciate everything you do for our teams and our community 💙

Yesterday was International Nurses Day, and we wanted to take a moment to recognise and thank the incredible nurses across our practices.

Our nurses are often the calm in the chaos, the reassuring face patients remember, and an essential part of keeping our practices running every single day. From supporting patients through difficult moments to helping keep our teams organised and cared for (while also answering approximately 847 questions a day from the rest of us 😉), their hard work never goes unnoticed.

We are so grateful for the compassion, dedication and care they show to our patients and our community every day.

Thank you to all of our wonderful nurses 💙

Flu protection for little ones just got a little easier 🙌

Queensland Health is now offering a needle-free flu vaccine for children aged 2 to 5 years, delivered as a simple nasal spray. It’s a gentle alternative for children who may feel nervous about needles, while still helping protect them during flu season.

We currently have the needle-free flu vaccine available at the clinic. If you would like to organise one for your child, please contact us today to book an appointment 😊

Central Highlands residents are being urged to avoid mosquito bites after a case of Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) was detected in a person in the region.

The Central Queensland Hospital and Health Service (CQHHS) said the person was recovering well, but couldn’t provide any further information for privacy reasons, including how the patient contracted the illness.

CQHHS said JEV was a rare but potentially serious illness spread by infected mosquitoes.

The service is working with local governments to conduct mosquito surveillance.

Members of the public are being urged to avoid mosquito bites by using repellents, coils, plug-in insecticide vaporiser devices, and wearing long-sleeved, loose-fitting clothes, preferably light-coloured.

CQHHS said while mosquitoes became infected after biting infected pigs or wading birds, there was no risk to humans from consuming pork or pig products, and it could not be spread from human to human.

Many risk factors for heart disease can develop quietly, often without noticeable symptoms in the early stages.

That’s why routine health checks can be so important. Things like blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar levels can provide valuable insight into your heart health and overall wellbeing.

Taking the time to check in on your health now can help identify potential concerns earlier and support your long-term wellbeing.

💕 Small habits can make a meaningful difference to heart health over time.

Regular movement, balanced nutrition, managing stress and monitoring key health markers can all help support cardiovascular health.

National Heart Week is a reminder that heart health plays an important role in overall wellbeing.

Heart disease remains one of the leading causes of illness in Australia, but small, consistent lifestyle habits can help support heart health over time.

Throughout the week, we’ll be sharing simple ways to help support your heart, including movement, nutrition and regular health checks.

Looking after your heart is part of looking after your long-term health 💙💙

You’re always welcome to bring a family member, friend or carer to your appointment. Having support can be really helpful, especially when discussing health concerns or remembering important information.

If the person attending with you would also like medical advice, a separate appointment will usually be needed. This helps ensure each patient receives enough time, privacy and attention for their individual concerns.

GP appointments are carefully scheduled so doctors can provide safe, thorough and personalised care for everyone. Allowing adequate time for each person also helps the clinic run smoothly and reduces delays for other patients.

If needed, our reception team is always happy to help organise another appointment time.

Thank you for helping us support the care of all patients.
