From July 1st 2024 our Consultation Fees will be increasing
Due to the increased cost of a running a quality medical practice, we have found it necessary to increase our fees. We will be introducing new time-tiered consultation fees. Healthcare has seen significant price increases on many expenses, and our costs have risen substantially.
This change is required so that Bellerive Health Hub can continue to provide you and your family with high quality healthcare whilst also covering the ever-increasing costs of running a Practice.
Beyond standard consultations your doctor will explain any additional costs to you and obtain your consent prior to any treatment received.
Thank you for your continued support
Bellerive Health Hub
Bellerive Health Hub will be closed on Monday 10th June 2024 for the King's Birthday Holiday.

6th May - 12th may is Heart Week. It provides an opportunity for the Australian public and health professionals to start a conversation about heart health and take positive steps to reduce their heart disease risk.
High blood pressure is a leading risk factor for heart disease.
The only way to find out if you have high blood pressure is to have it checked regularly, even if you’re feeling well and healthy. Everyone aged 18 and over should have their blood pressure measured at least once every two years.
Blood pressure can be measured at home using a validated machine, at a pharmacy via a SiSu Health Station , or by a doctor or nurse during your next doctor’s appointment.
A Heart Health Check is a 30-minute check-up with your GP and Nurse to assess your risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next five years.
As part of the check, your doctor will ask you about your lifestyle, medical and family health history. They will also check your blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar levels and do an electrocardiogram.
Your GP will use this information to estimate your risk of a heart attack or stroke. More importantly, they will discuss the steps you can take to lower your risk.
If you are 30 and over, you can have a Heart Health Check with your GP that is subsidised by Medicare once per year.
Please telephone our Practice on 6122 0150 and make an appointment with our Chronic Disease Nurse Laura to start your Heart Health Check.
