At Belconnen Medical Centre, our highly experienced team provides a comprehensive range of medical services. Our doctors and nurses strive to provide the highest level of care for our patients.
Medical Services We Offer
Belconnen Medical Centre is proud of its commitment to quality healthcare in Canberra.
Skin Cancer Checks
Our Canberra-based service specialises in detecting and removing skin cancers. It is advised to undergo regular skin cancer checks in Canberra, irrespective of outdoor activity levels. Skin cancers often result from sun-produced ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Those with fair skin, numerous moles, or a family history of skin cancer may be at a higher risk.
Health Assessments
We offer bulk-billed health assessments for eligible patients. Your doctor may recommend a health assessment if you are aged 40-49 with a high risk of type 2 diabetes, aged 45-49 with a risk of chronic disease, or aged 75 or over. Other eligibility criteria may apply, inquire at our reception for details.
General Medical Check-ups
Regular medical check-ups are recommended for all patients. Our doctors will assess your weight, blood pressure, resting heart rate, and inquire about your lifestyle. Blood testing may be recommended to check cholesterol levels and detect other health conditions like diabetes.
Vaccinations
We offer COVID-19 and seasonal flu vaccines, as well as travel vaccinations for hepatitis
A and B, typhoid, yellow fever, cholera, chickenpox, measles, tetanus, rabies, tuberculosis (TB), meningococcal disease,
and Japanese encephalitis. Please book in advance for travel vaccinations.
Asthma Clinic
Our asthma clinic in Canberra offers treatment and support for asthma sufferers. We conduct respiratory health checks, provide advice on appropriate treatment, and prescribe both asthma relievers and preventers.
Mirena IUD
Mirena (levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system) is a hormone-releasing system placed in your uterus to prevent pregnancy for as long as you want for up to 5 years. Mirena also treats heavy periods in women who choose intrauterine contraception.
ECG Heart Testing
Your doctor will conduct a Heart Health Check to assess your risk of heart attack or stroke over the next five years. This comprehensive evaluation considers multiple factors, not just individual ones. Contact reception for appointments.
