At Greencare, we understand that women’s health needs are unique and ever-changing. From early adulthood through to midlife and beyond, many women are seeking personalised support that acknowledges the whole person, not just symptoms or diagnoses.
However, many women face barriers when it comes to prioritising their health. According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, nearly 1 in 3 women (32.8%) delayed or did not use general practitioner (GP) services when needed in 2023 – 2024. Common reasons included long wait times and cost-related concerns, with 31.6% of women reporting they waited longer than they felt acceptable for a GP appointment. These figures highlight the need for more accessible, flexible healthcare options like telehealth, to help women stay on top of their wellbeing.

Balancing career, family, and self-care can make it challenging to prioritise your health.

Your privacy is important to us, trust that every appointment is confidential and your information is secure.
What to expect from a Women’s Health appointment
Every appointment is centred around you, your needs, your questions, and your goals. During a consultation, our qualified practitioners take the time to understand your health history, discuss any concerns you may have, and explore options that align with your lifestyle and preferences.
Your appointment might include:
- A discussion of your general health, preferences, and lifestyle
- Your medical history
- Conversations about life stage transitions
- A safe space to ask questions without judgment
We believe health care should be collaborative. Our role is to provide up-to-date information to help you make informed decisions about your health.
Our team can provide assistance with the following issues:
- Skincare: Our practitioners offer tailored advice on common skin concerns such as acne or hormonal changes, providing personalised skincare recommendations and treatment plans.
- Sexual health: Many women experience sexual health concerns, such as low libido, dryness, or discomfort. Our practitioners provide confidential consultations to discuss treatment options that align with your unique needs. These conversations may also include oral contraceptive care, helping you choose the method that best suits your health, preferences, and lifestyle.
- Hair loss: Hair loss can impact self-esteem and body confidence. Our practitioners can suggest tailored approaches to support your hair growth and health.
- Quit smoking support: Our team can provide guidance on reducing nicotine dependence and finding the most appropriate quit-smoking strategy to suit your needs.
- Ongoing medication management: Our practitioners conduct thorough assessments of current treatment plans to ensure they remain appropriate for your health needs. Repeat prescriptions may be provided when clinically suitable.
Medical certificates: Our practitioners can provide medical certificates to meet workplace and travel requirements if needed. Please note that medical certificates are issued following a medical evaluation and at the practitioner’s discretion.
